As a management student trying to fulfill a position at a corporate company I would expect that the person should be employed with multiple roles inside the company especially small companies. Dispatching, scheduling, and maybe even maintenance management would be possible area that an employee would find him or herself involved in. I would expect the in a bigger corporation that personnel will higher skilled and subject matter experts in their careers. Employees in the airline environment at regional I would expect to fulfill specific roles but get paid less than mainline carriers. It may be easier to get jobs at regional to start than in corporate or mainline carriers. Therefore I believe that as it relates to pay both mainline and corporate would offer higher salaries and regional would offer less money and benefits.
Some argue that corporate aviation is for the wealthy to spread their legs and not worry about interaction with common folk, but many businesses depend on aviation in the corporate world to secure deals that would otherwise go to first come first serve or imminent business transactions. Much can be gained in face to face transactions and personnel professional communication via fast traveling transportation can allow a company to further transactions that may have otherwise not happened due to geographical differences. Both arguments are based on sound conclusions taken in specific cases, but if you would take the negative and the positive as a whole then the positives outweigh the negative. I agree that when the need is to impress the client and secure a business deal in a timely manner than corporate aviation is a necessity not a luxury.
Pentastar aviation is headquartered in Waterford, MI and has a fleet of aircraft including Gulf-stream G-V, Gulf-stream G-IV, Falcon 2000, Citation Sovereign, Citation XLS. For dispatcher you need a certificate and for flight you need ATP. They offer medical, dental, disability, life insurance, 401K, paid holidays and time off.

You have a good idea of the management positions in corporate companies - yes, you have multiple roles that are often designated to one person in the airlines.
ReplyDeleteIts nice to see a corporate aviation company so close to us. I was unaware of pentastar and will definitely have to go and check them out. Hopefully they will be hiring when it becomes time for me to begin my aviation career.
ReplyDeleteFrom talking to pilots and other people, Pentastar is a great company to work for. They offer many benefits to the employee and family. Also, people who get employed there usually stay there until they retire, some start working as a ground/line employee and move on from there but some also come from the airlines once they build up enough time and experience for Pentastar to consider them.
ReplyDeleteManagement should be tasked with multiple roles, this not only creates fail safes within the company but a more diverse workforce. I too looked at Pentastar, but more specifically their survival flight division.
