Channex

Dunno what they're like to work for - always been pretty switched on when I've dealt with them in the past.... demise of Heavylift and Farnair Netherlands A300 operation should leave them looking fairly secure for a while... apparently around 18K for Ops Controller in BOH......

Thumbs down

Channel employ five controllers (all on more than 20K) and are looking for THREE replacements (and probably a fourth shortly). A bit careless to lose so many? Also lost three out of five Ops officers last autumn, the troops are not happy!

Harrier46 come on then spill the beans. Why is everyone leaving then, surely can't be that bad with expansion plans that are currently be put into place (jet2 etc)

Devil

Plenty of expansion but present ops team have been told they are not worthy of promotion and management have lost the respect of the troops

Well, these things do happen. Some of the "old boys" can often not keep up with technology, expansion and basically progress. Maybe a new team or part of would be a good move on the part of Channex.......... Good luck to one and all
