Crap schedules? 12/3 is good? Every regional in the country offers a better schedule. Crap food? Per diem at most regionals is on par with $15/meal at EAS. Crap hotels? Pretty much the same. I've stayed at various levels of hotels and motels throughout the country. Embassy Suites is pretty much the same as most La Quintas countrywide. Open bar? I would guess that most regional pilots can afford a sixer at the 7-11 for $7.
There was a time where I would have killed for an FO slot at EAS. I got shot down in 2013, and honestly, I am glad I did. I've made way more money and logged way more valuable time since I got the denial letter.
I think it is unfair to everyone reading this thread to listen to someone talk about a company that said individual has not even been employed at. Most of your points are valid but those who actually know what EAS is about should be the only individuals offering up their experiences.
rant over.
