Colgan, CommutAir, Lakes, Gulfstream, wait...all the turboprop operators.
Six one, half dozen another - we all want to get our time and get the hell out of these places.
Prop guys take the low pay in exchange for a quick upgrade (in theory), the jet guys take a longer upgrade but have better living conditions should things tank out and they get stuck. I would say there's no right or wrong way, it's just an individual risk/reward assessment.
DirectTo sounds pretty close to reality right there.
