Talked to a buddy of mine that works there, pretty massive announcement yesterday. Salary increases, especially for senior jet guys. 7/7 coming in June. Medical/Dental paid by company. OT rates increased. More PTO days. More vacation and sooner. I'll try and get more details from him. Sounds like planesense is feeling the pinch of the pilot market and had to get drastic. I know they had a bunch of senior guys jump ship to Netjets lately, hopefully this helps keep people around.

No new hire class in April, the next class is in May, so interviews were stopped until April. Also they had a server crash which wiped out a lot of internal information. I would reapply and if you have contact information when you originally applied use it to see if the application is still valid. If you personally know a Plane Sense pilot ask him/her to check on your status.

My buddy sent me a screenshot of the payscale, so here is some more details:
PC12 FO:
Year 1- $42,500
Max Year 2 - $45,000
PC12 CA:
Year 1- $65,000
Year 10 - $110,000
Year 15 - $124,455
Max Year 20 - $140,809
PC24 FO:
Year 1 - $70,000
Year 5 - $90,000
Year 10 - $115,000
Year 15 - $129,455
Max Year 20 - $145,809
PC24 CA:
Year 1 - $105,000
Year 5 - $125,000
Year 10 - $150,000
Year 15 - $175,100
Year 20 - $201,587
Note: Payscale does have increases every single year, I'm just not typing it all out here. You get the idea. Also, everybody flows through the PC12, so nobody is going to be below year 5 with the company at this point and going into the jet.
Other pay: Flight duty pay, he said as a PC12 captain earns another $800 per paycheck or so. So you can add about $15,000 or more a year. He said they also bumped up the 401k match a few months ago, match 50% up to 10% of salary.
