Pros

NONE!They are a scam!

Cons

They ask you to sign a contract to work for them for 18 months and if you terminate your contract they will charge you $10,000 training fee...BUT BEWARE - they can fire you at anytime without cause and charge you $10,000!!! They are scamming pilots! They have sued over 40 pilots in the las 2.5 years! Do not sign their contract! Do not work for Air Choice One! There are plenty of honest time building airlines.

Pros

Decent place to build flight hours, at least when they still had routes to fly, pilot group was great and made some really good friends, Captain pay is actually decent for flying Caravans part 135, not so much for a First Officer. Flying experience is valuable flying in Class B airspace, in challenging weather, dealing with difficult pax, etc. Overall, a good look at what it's like to work for an airline.

Cons

Management is toxic, the chief pilot is great but most others in management don't respond promptly with emails and treat you with a condescending attitude. Communication between upper management and employees is nearly non-existent, which promotes rumors and gossip. Aircraft are maintained, but only to the extent that they are "legal" to fly, not much else. The kicker is the "training" contract, either 18 or 24 months depending on how many hours you come in with, which is a LONG time to be stuck there unless you have the $$$ to get out of it.
