Considering a career in ATC . Took assessment last week scored a best qualified with the referral , and I know that’s not a guaranteed offer but I’m just looking into what a career switch would be like for me if it was to come . Currently a 27 year old a&p mechanic living in NYC. Top pay 130-140k . No pension , just 401 & flight benefits. All I know about the ATC work life is what I read on google , so I was hoping to get some insight from some of y’all who currently do it . If there’s any insight you guys would like to share on pay scales , pension , benefits , relocation ,and day to day work life , I’d listen to it all . Also , if I get the job ideally I would hope to stay in NYC , what are the chances of that ?
Thanks all
