Here is an email sent to me from Sigma (they obviously disn't know I am employed here):

I am delighted to announce that Turkish Airlines have increased their Salary!!

This new GENEROUS salary for Captains will be as follows;

Details are included in the attached job spec but comprise of an approximate 20% increase

These new terms are applicable immediately!
As far as I'm concerned, this is an outright lie. Not even stretching the truth, but completely deceitful.

I replied calling their offer fraudulent, and they of course directed blame to THY saying that's what they were told. This was the reply:
This is not mis-leading nor is this fraudulent.

A few pilots I previously placed with THY have been in contact informing me that they did not receive an increase in their latest salary over this weekend so I have been in contact with THY to advise this. I am sure there is a reasonable explanation in any case.
I'd love to hear that reasonable explanation.

Simple fact folks... they think Pilots are complete idiots and will maybe not realise there's been no pay rise!

Disgusting, condescending and a true reflection of how we are perceived by some of the management.

No matter how much you polish a turd......
