1/3 Cutback of Controller Hiring
« on: January 04, 2010, 01:14:40 PM »
In October of 2009, there was a cutback of hiring of controllers by 1/3.  I read about it and proceeded to ask around and see what others have thought about it.  I've gotten some different answers about it, but of course, it all seems to stem around, $$$$$, as everything in life does!  LOL!

What do all of you, who are either journeymen controllers, or applicants to be hired (like myself), have to say about this?  When do you expect hiring to increase?  Or what do you all think are the ramifications of this decision?

Any comment, information, or insight is always welcome!
