Meetup/Retreat

What is this? You have to pay back 30k if you leave for an LCC?
Yes, when you upgrade or if currently a CA, you get 30k with a 3 yr agreement to repay if leaving for any reason other than age 65 retirement or hired by AA
 
I can't imagine how • it is to work at American if they have to literally bribe people to stick around long enough to flow to a legacy airline.
Don't be jelly, y'all gonna get your flow there too eventually. #becauseBorg
I'm also curious about the opt-in/opt-out requirements? If you have a class date already or have interviewed, can you say no thanks?
Yeah, that's voluntary

Probably not so much American itself as all those years at Envoy between turning down an offer to escape the regionals and actually flowing, during which Envoy could be Comaired at any time.

This is it. Primary reason is they want people to join American Eagle and handcuff themselves to stay there as long as they are needed.

You two are not helping me troll the troll.

What better way to troll him than point out that Envoy, which he claims is effectively mainline, is just another regional that could and someday probably will be Comaired at a moment's notice.

Not just another any regional, but clearly one that isn't good to work at. So much so people are jumping ship as soon as they possibly can.

Please for the love of God people, stop signing a dotted line at 200 hours!!! You'll have any regional offer you want when you have your hours!!

I offered it a few pages back that we compile a list of good/bad in regionals.
 
Update on the meetup. Finalizing the details but looking at 17 total that are confirmed. Had to condense a bit due to availability of the facility but one day of golf planned followed by an outdoor cookout that evening. After the cookout, I will present some basic info and then we will go into roundtable discussion along with questions.

As you might imagine, the bonuses will be a major topic of the conversation and several have checked that as an item they would like to have discussed. Things are ramping up tremendously. Unlike anything I could have foreseen earlier this year. The amount of new hires needed is just incredible considering the environment we just came out of. More than ever I'm hearing recruits placing heavy, heavy emphasis on getting into the pipeline program and getting that number at Envoy/AA ASAP. Everyone with any sense sees this for what it is. A golden opportunity to get hired at the largest major airline in the world with fantastic career options.

I was chatting with one recruit on the phone recently and he was absolutely floored about a fellow student at his pipeline university who turned down Envoy and went to Skywest. He said he couldn't figure it out until another student that was tight with this individual pointed out that the pilot that went to Skywest had indeed applied at Envoy right out of the gate in the pipeline process but was rejected because of background issues. I suppose the pilot had maintained the facade that he didn't want AA at all when in fact he indeed did everything he could to get that number here. Embarrassment may have played an issue in him stating he didn't want Envoy/AA from the beginning.

I'll give him one thing though- the company is bringing newhires in for an "orientation day" and then sends them home for 1.5-2 months due to the training availability.
