For many employees of Jet AirwaysNSE -1.35 %, loss of place may have now turned into a loss of face too.
As if losing their jobs was not hard enough, recently some Jet pilots had to allegedly face some serious humiliation as well. At a recruitment drive, a senior SpiceJet executive allegedly said the airline was doing ‘charity’ by hiring out-of-job Jet pilots.
SpiceJet rushed to deny the episode after the report stirred a hornet’s nest. The plight of the hapless pilots, however, was not lost on anyone.
As the dust settles after Jet’s crashlanding, the extent of the toll the fiasco has taken on the airline and beyond is now becoming clear.
