It depends. If you are pensioner or near pension or if your work for fun it might work ok. Still, notwithstanding the appearances, you will not be welcome . Turkish are extremely nationalistic and at times it will become even evident. The general consensus is that all will be kicked out in due time to leave space to heroic local aviators. I anticipated the process my self. You will be flying for quite some time as second captain and that might become interesting seen the number of peculiar personalities. Than you will have to deal with Ipad experts FO that will point out all possible silly details but that normally will miss the big picture. Professionally if nothing has changed a pretty poor environment The few that came from Dubai... went back to Dubai. I think there is still a couple of chaps..that tried but did not make it back. Salary are down 30 % on exchange rate I'm been told. Good point commuting with 8 block off days and salary paid in time. Enjoy.
