Let me add, because everyone's experience is a little different.
Hard Line.
17-19 days off, 85-95 hours credit
Excellent commuter policy, two flights. N/A for me.
Layover hotels are excellent, not long enough.
No sked issues. Junior Man if you want it, I've had no problem with skeds.
Really enjoy the culture, never had an issue with the CP. I know them, great people, but my overriding philosophy is to not get hassled, so I follow the rules, don't do anything dumb, dangerous, or different and I've never had a problem.
I've been here 2+ years, I get transition conflicts, usually my top 10 choices for bid, and am sitting in the top 1/4 in base. It's been a great ride so far.
