A tiny bit "off topic", but a good thread to pose the Q nonetheless.
A colleague told me a story the other day about a rated FO friend who had resigned from Wizz to join EZY in Berlin.
On the 1st day of his company conversion course he was presented with a contract to sign, significantly inferior to his expectations.
Would you judge this could be likely due to the time elapsed between interview & being offered a position (have conditions decreased in Berlin recently ? ) or was it likely to be merely a cynical "try-on".
Of course having resigned his previous position he didn't have much choice.
I find episodes like this very revealing, & have another colleague who recently turned down a position with Monarch, similarly what he was offered was way lower than had been mentioned at interview 1 year earlier. Fortunately for him he hadn't resigned & was able to say "thanks but no thanks".
Not stirring or slagging, just curious.
