anyone who attend
What did they say, offer? thank you |
Their recruitment team managed to make a few FOs consider it for all of 10 minutes. There was tons more interest when QR came to town.
|
It actually wasn't such a terrible package. Like anywhere it had its weaknesses but it also had benefits.
Horses for Courses I say. |
Just out of interest, how much do they pay?
|
Depends on your position, your base, your experience, your sector numbers. I got anywhere between 4500 and 10500 EURs after taxes, social security and other deductions. 4500 as a brand new cpt with around 30 sectors, and 10000 with a bit more experience (10 line training days + 4000hours CPT experience at Wzz, working max hours)
|
It's an average of 5000 to 7000 for new captains increasing to around 8000 to 10000 after 6 years. Then if you get LTC or management pilot you can add 1000-2000 more. If you then have a monthly expense of 800-1500 euros it's not too bad afterall, living in Europe. It's not all about the money on the account at the beginning of the month, but in the end of it which counts...people tend to forget about that.

You will never make anywhere close to 10000 in wizzair. Gross maybe, but not even that.

Sure, maybe the one month in the year when they fly 120 block hours and 80 sectors, a TRI/TRE make that money, gross. Maybe.
Then there is the small problem called taxes and social security, which the majority of the western pilots in wizz happily decide to ignore. Until the taxman comes knocking at their nice house in London or Germany. 10000 is certainly not representative of the average monthly pay, and anybody saying otherwise is wrong. Ask them to show you the payslip. And before you ask, I worked there, so I know more than a few people, and I know the contracts offered, with all the tricks involved. |

If you say so.
On average, people should count on not much more than half of that for a normal Cpt, and they won't be disappointed. |

That's the thing, reading what you wrote there people might assume a Captain after 6 years makes that money. That is false, as I pointed out.

I was bring sarcastic.
Being 900 hours the yearly limit, and 400 the average number of sectors flown, emphatizing what you can make flying 120 hours with 60 sectors in a month is useless, unless you also specify that the rest of the months you would get just slightly more than the basic salary. And still this is all without paying for social insurance, pension and income taxes. End of discussion for me. |
