I have a buddy considering doing this for a bit. Can anyone answer some of these questions by any chance?
Is there a contract you have to sign? Or is it like at will employment?
You sign a contract but I’ve known guys to leave whenever they want. My friend whose been doing it for almost 3 years now has told me how they structure your pay makes sure most of the money comes after you’re rated and a big lump towards the end of your contract.
Is the first 100k tax free? Idk the details but I’ve heard it’s the first 90k and you have to be X amount of days out of country to qualify.
Is it uncommon for women to work there?
I have an old coworker out there right now with her husband.
Do you have to have radar experience?
No, I’ve known many Tower only get picked up for one of the RAPCONs overseas.
Good money, 2 or 3 weeks of vacation, they pay for your travel, and easy ops at most locations.
