As for year 1 FO rates, that's a concession to let one small group get a 50% raise while everybody else gets QOL only. It's management trying to cheaply attract new hire pilots. So is a bonus for that matter. Compensation should be raised unilaterally - this in term will create a generous compensation package that will attract pilots. It also costs more money than any regional wants to pay. Skywest= no Union. It's why year 1 FO is so high. It's also why the E175 is paid less than the CRJ-900 LMAO
As for pay rates, a good comparison would be Skywest year 4 FO to Compass year 4 CA. Or try Endeavor year 7 FO to Compass year 7 CA (even throw their bonus in and see who's making out better... Hint it's not the FO).
