Hi everyone. Anyone from Easterns out there willing to share what your job/lifestyle is really like?
Specifically:
1/ What are the rosters like out of the different ports?
2/ How many hours a week/day?
3/ What are the rosters like on weekends (ie start/finish)?
4/ How many days a week do you get off/reserve etc?
5/ Do you do many layovers?
6/ What ports do you usually layover at?
7/ On a layover what are the sign-on times like for the next day? (ie. are there any good layover ports?)
8/ Usual Sign-On/Sign-Off times?
Realistically how long would it take to get a command? (i've heard between 2 to 10 years!)
What is company morale like amongst the crews?
Are things generally improving with time, or getting worse?
Are they likely to open up any other ports as pilot bases?
There has been a lot of interviewing going on lately - any word on likely ground school dates.
Is there anyone out there waiting for a start date?
Cheers to all who reply.
