CB,
From another thread I noticed the rating is half paid for by the company and the rest is deducted at 500 Euro per month for 2 years. As a cadet for the first year you will take home a bit over 1000 Euro a month. That is crap but you should make FO within the first 12-14 months then you go to 3000 Euro minus the 500 for the second year. Whilst that isn't great I would take that over Ryan any day.
It isn't the worst deal out there.
