For your physical safety and mental health, stay away from Contour!

Pros

You sometimes get to work on private jets, although even contour’s “nice” planes are barely passable. You’ll meet some amazing pilots and ground crew.

Cons

Overbearing management, you’ll be working on broken janky planes that are barely legal to fly, no one ever knows what’s going on. Prepare to have constant maintenance delays and endless condescending emails to read. Turnover is so high, they make you sign a contract saying that if you quit before 12 month of service, you owe them 8k. Everyone I knew quit anyway. Not worth it even for experience.
