Pros

Some of the pilots you fly with will be nice, normal people... Like 75% I suppose.

Cons

Max duty day and min rest if your airplane isn't broken. Tons of maintenance problems and you will consistently be picking up passengers that are already pissed off from their flight being moved to a day later than it was scheduled, and then your airplane will break and they will be yelling at you. The company doesn't make money. They are all talk and nothing ever changes. They can't figure out how to stock the right size soda cans for the planes, so don't expect them to ever be able to get this company profitable.

Pros

Base cash compensation is above average. Work-life balance can be good as well, depending on the team.

Cons

Some teams are led by toxic managers, and your experience can become very difficult if you end up on one of those teams. Management may appear supportive on the surface, but periodic layoffs create ongoing uncertainty.
