CX give you NOTHING for free. They make the "free" training back within 2-3 years via the reduced remuneration package as opposed to the other pilots. But you're bonded for at least 6 years? THEY'RE MAING MONEY OUT OF THEM! So you've well and truly paid for this "free" training and will continue to pay into the bonus cheques of these immoral and greedy managers for the rest of your contracted period at CX on C-Scale. Sort of like paying a cover charge to get a "free drink"..... The fools see "free" and go racing in!!!

Nothing we can do? YES THERE IS. You can say NO. It may take a spine and integrity though.

Who screwed it up in the first place? Well, sell-outs who signed up even before the $10k housing allowance was offered for example! So, following the sell-out down a path of eternal shame and disrespect of your colleagues makes it OK? No. You have a choice to make: part of the problem or part of the solution.

The former package would HAVE TO BE offered within weeks if everyone stood together and said no. To recruit the required pilots CX would be forced to offer a better package.

While I appreciate the opinion pilotho, the answers are simple. It just takes a pair of balls, a spine and some integrity - which as we can see is waaaaay beyond the likes parading a dummy spit bi-polar attitude here.
