So, when I mention high turn over rate or a lot of movement that could mean moving up the FO list a little faster to be able to hold a line and have a little better QOL. So, no, I didn't contradict myself. You assumed I meant a quick upgrade.
You are right, I apologize. I did assume you meant a quick upgrade by lots of movement. When I think movement, I think quick potential upgrade especially at a smaller company like Compass.
That being said, I agree that Compass is a good choice given the current circumstances, however my point was movement doesn’t mean anything at the time until you are sitting top on the list and its already happened. I went to my first regional during massive movement where upgrades were at 2 years, now there are 6-7 year FOs that may not ever see an upgrade.
