 I stated with the biggest operator when they were small. Terrible maintenance, poor pay, sleeping in a tent on fire jobs and being sent on wire jobs I was in no way ready for. They have gotten bigger and better.

 I drifted around several companies and have found both good and bad prevail everywhere in some form or another. Big companies that will buy you the cheapest, crappiest airline flight to 2 two machine operations that give out $15,000 bonuses.

 Maintenance is what you make it for sure, usually being support to your mechanics and diplomatic when it's time to insist and refuse to fly.
