If you are considering joining you would do well to read the posts by Pixy, he always tells it as it is with a degree of objectivity that is hard to emulate with all the negative emotions Emirates generate. I wish i d had such foresight.

250 in 5 months is not a true reflection of the health status, it's the nett amount that's important! You'll always hear how great recruitment is, and granted, the numbers are good, but for every 3 coming in, one is out the door!!
Too true Kingpost. 250 through the door, pilot list increased by 98. I am sure the extra 35c per month ground allowance will fix this.

So what's your point? There are airlines out there that pay twice as much as ours and fly 2/3 of the hours. And many are leaving for them. And those who you say aren't complaining haven't had any pay raise in about 4 years. And you for sure know that they're not complaining? Idiot! Guess I just don't know where to find the B.C. Costa goers' Internet forum.
I currently work for an orange low cost. Last time I checked the Captain's basic salary was 36140DHS. If I understood well from the above there are are 35 pay points, 1 for each year of service increasing at 3% each one. So 36140DHS increases by 3% every year?

Yes and no... You start at step 1 when you join as a FO, then move one up every year (if they award the step increase that year). When you upgrade to the left seat you move up 10 steps, and then one new step per year. Total steps 35 allowing for a 25 year career.

The leaving/joining numbers above are incorrect. The last guy to join in 2015 started on 13/12 at number 3905 (380 F/O MJ). Today his number is 3837- up 68 numbers in just under 6 months. The total on the list today is 4104- up 199.
The reason the salary review was so disappointing is reflected in those numbers. Not as many are leaving as say they are, and plenty are joining. Whether that trend continues or not will decide what happens with future reviews.

DEC salary
Fatbus, I don't think that's correct. DECs come in at level 1 - approx 36,000 as stable_checked stated. I am happy to be corrected if wrong.
Are the pay scales published anywhere btw?

Recent DEC I have met was one step 14 on joining.
