XO Jet

[Inverted]

Ya it really is. I also understand the company hasn't turned a profit yet. Which can be a little scary. I have 2 friends that work there and never heard a peep.

I have heard that if you walk in to their WHQ, you still don't stand a chance.........

good ole boys club at its finest

Almost all good jobs are, can't really fault them for it. Probably keeps a lot of weirdos out to be honest.

Or it concentrates them.

Good point!

I've heard the home basing is going away to a different system... Certain gateway airports or something. I've heard it's a good place, but 16 days on? Just shoot me.

That's double what you get at the regionals..... (I don't personally mind, but I know others do).

 

[Jimmy_Norton]

I heard they are not hiring anyone in '13

Layoff rumor mill just started. Rumor only but 15-20 guys will hit the street soon. Last time it didn't happen by seniority either. Keep you all updated but yeah, not good.

Well than I'm safe. :/

Well then I'm safe. :/

Hey I am not a grammar nazi but... I fixed it for you.

 

[BEEF SUPREME]

Sorry I was a little wrapped up in human misery answering calls from guys who think they are about to cope with a job loss. Sad part is that I don't know what to tell them.

Sorry to hear man.

 

[mattyt98]

is this a serious rumor I thought they had planned on hiring this year?

Geez, really? I'm really sorry to hear this man, let's hope it's just a rumor. Some good people over there.

A buddy of mine over there is pretty senior on the Hawker, but thinks he might hit the street soon as that fleet is being parked. Nothing like furloughing by fleet...classy. Sorry guys.

 

[BEEF SUPREME]

To be fair to XO. There will be an update tomorrow from MGMT. The new rumor is much better and the guys who were super bummed are much better now. The hawker fleet will still be parked and I would say your chances of being hired are about the same as my chances of progression. Sorry for the bad news.
