Default Commuting into and out of Florida

Hi Guys,

I am considering employment opportunities with both Expressjet and Compass Airlines very soon. My situation is that my wife and kids must remain in Boca Raton, FL, and I would therefore have to commute to MSP, DTW(for Compass) or EWR, ORD, CLE or IAH(for Expressjet). Does anyone know which of those domiciles are the junior ones for new-hires these days for either airline?

Can anyone share their advice/experiences with the following:

1.) Quality of life, average days off per week if commuting into and out of Florida to those domiciles as a new-hire.
2.) Which airports in FL, while living in Boca Raton and cannot relocate due to my family, would give me the best options for commutes into and out of Florida with low seniority? For example: MIA, FLL, PBI, or MCO.
3.) Would it be absolutely necessary to get a crashpad/hotel, or can one smartly commute out of Florida to arrive within a couple hours before report time for early starts?

Thanks guys..
