QOL and pay scale. Thank you to those who added helpful information.
Let's attempt to bring this thread back to the issue. You keep asking about only 2 things, Pay & QOL.
So, your QOL and as a matter of fact, your net income(PAY left after travel related expenses), will eventually depend on all these follwing factors:
Where do you live?? East Coast, West Coast, Midwest?? Are you going to move to whatever base you get assigned to??
If not, Which airline has a base either closest to where you live which is driveable in 1-2 hours or easiest commute from where you live??
Then,
a) Are you single, married/ have a significant other,
b) Is your significant other willing to follow you around the country?
c) Do you have childern?
d) Does your spouse/ significant other has childern from prior marriages/ relationships that can prevent their move due to custory issues?
e) Does he/she have a job & is his/her job easily replaceable in a new city........
See all these questions...... You are the one who knows what your situation is & you should be asking all these questions to yourself FIRST.....
I'd suggest that you give more info about yourself and present a more specific scenario, then people can try to give to you some tips & advise....
Bottomline, It will really depends on what your short term & long term goals are??

Skywest isn't running classes either, so that leaves only XJT, which is also owned by SKW.
Typically, general wisdom, what I have read here & I personally agree: Choose the company that puts you in class SOONEST...... There is no guarantee whether the other company may have a class 1 week later or MAY BE they start to furlough after 2 weeks. 1 week seniority may mean the difference between furlough & staying on property. Witnessed that with Eagle In Nov 11 post BK.
Had to see it myself to believe in the age old wisdom...
