Fair pay, no roster stability at all

Sick leave is not held against you, which matters more than people expect. The trade-off is a roster that assumes you will always be available on days off. [demo]

Pros

Colleagues are excellent and crew rooms are decent.

Cons

Days off are theoretical.

Solid contract, the reality does not match it

Contract said one thing about days off and the reality is consistently two or three fewer a month. Everything else has been broadly as advertised. [demo]

Pros

Pay arrives on time, every month.

Cons

Roster changes constantly, right up to the day.
