He raises legitimate questions. At times various airlines through poor training departments and/or internal politics can cause significant harm to new hire pilots just looking to make it to the line.

One regional had political "pink badge of courage" hit squads for a certain fleet. Even upgrading Captains on that fleet used their seniority to pick different fleets. Another had a massive new hire washout rate towards the end of its PFT days. One stuck dozens of pilots in limbo due to a lack of training capacity on a certain fleet, then fired them right before the end of their probationary year.

The reputation of an airline and its training program as well as how they treat new hires are all critically important, especially for someone's initial airline job. That we are potentially on the verge of a strong "buyers market" from a pilot's perspective will only elevate an airline's reputation for new hire pilots and play a significant part in where the limited supply chooses to go to.
