Business Outlook
Pros
Meeting great people and flying consistently. Helping students pass check rides is the best feeling. Very structured so as a new instructor you always know what to do and teach. Maintenance personnel are great, the planes always feel safe.
Cons
Long work days with very little pay. Under-appreciated by management and overworked. Only get paid for flight time and sim time so if youre at work for 12 hours but only flew/simmed 6 of those hours you will only get paid for 6. Work basically 7 days a week to meet quotas set by management. The new policies set by management counteract their own core values.
