Things to consider.

Pros:

GoJet is growing at the moment, that can always change.
Upgrade mins are more than likely going to be dropped a few hundred hrs, so they can happen internally, at least at first.
The company doesn't have the staffing for another 12 aircraft at the moment. Mass hiring to come starting next month....160-200 pilots are the numbers I heard.
United guys and gals should be departing soon. Even more movement.
Talk of dtw base.

Cons:

Apc cruisers will say they hate you, Which is laughable.
It's a regional airline, and the employee group is treated as such.
Can't Jumpseat on Mesaba. They're pretty much the only ones. No agreement is in line between the two. With delta flying, something tells me that will change.
