Have things improved since this thread stopped?
No salary on ad this time. Any sign of school fees being paid? (3 kids)
No, if anything things have gotten worse, still no pay rise despite all the talk of one. There were a few staff that changed from SERCO to GCAA that got a raise but the existing GCAA controllers are still on the same pay for the last 7 years.

If you have kids forget it, no schooling paid and no chance it will be paid, school fees are going up again so that's another pay cut. If you have 3 kids you will not survive here even on the new pay rate that the ex-SERCO controllers are on.

People are leaving, we are currently around 25 short and it's not getting any better.

The bonus is that if you come you are almost guaranteed to pass, the standard has dropped so low that every one passes no matter how bad they are.

Think carefully about coming and don't come here and complain after a few months about how bad it is, you have been warned.
