ABX Air Cargo - November 2024 Thread

Yep that’s basically how it is. The starting pay is pretty good for a place that will hire you with no experience. You get a little raise after you get signed off and a 2-5% annual raise after your yearly review.

If you are lucky enough to get a supervisor position when they open up, you have a Monday-Thursday schedule and that pay starts right around $80k.

I dont believe they have a true payscale as they are non-union. My guess is salary range is estimated based on longest tenured?

When I was there we were told pay can be up into the 6 figures however when we asked the guy that had been there for 20+ years he said he wasn't making that. That was for ATI but for the most part the pay is pretty equal between the airlines. Pay increases every year we're between 3-5% based on performance so if given a starting pay you could figure out what you'll be making each year though I'm sure they'll cap you at some point.

Quarterly and annual bonuses aren't usually factored into the annual by people.

But it IS a part of the compensation.

That being said, a family of 4 needs to bring in around $150k annually in this area of the world to buy a home.

It's been a few years since I was there but from what I recall we maybe got like 1-2.5k in a yearly bonus. Then again I think the airline was doing better at the time. Other than yearly pay increase though in the few years I was there we only had 1 time where we received a substantial pay increase to bring us in line with similar airlines.

Not trying to say it's a bad thing, I know they would regularly higher some pretty fresh dispatchers so when your options are here or a regional this is a clear winner. Also depending on where you choose to live you can find a decent house that's affordable. The city i was in for example is about 30 minutes away and I can still find decent 3 bed houses under 200k so if you have a spouse with a job you could easily make that work.
 
well company seems pretty good based upon what im reading. anyone have other info like 401k matching, any ZED bennies, CASS, any relocation assistance?
