Folks,
I got a job offer recently and I am looking over the contract. Got the offer last week and had been asking friends for their opinions. For some reason the light bulb just went off today and I realize I should actually ask an attorney.
What I am concerned about are the following clauses. I wonder if those sound reasonable to you and if you would accept them.
so here goes
1. Company agrees to advance the pilot training expense
2. If I fail the training I will have to refund the company the total cost of training
3. If employment is terminated for any reason, with or without cause, prior to 12 consecutive months of active service after the completion of training, I agree to refund the company on the pro rata basis.
Opinions are appreciated. I am also seeking contract review from an aviation attorney. If anyone think they may be able to recommend an attorney or ARE attorney themselves willing to help please PM or tell me to PM you. I am unable to disclose any details (including the state) in this post.
I am wondering most if #3 is a deal breaker. I personally feel that I would rather have that amended to "If employment is terminated due to misconduct". The language of the contract as is seems too open ended.
Thanks!
