I'm not sure what his reasons are but don't forget that 95% of the people here at Compass right now (up to appx 70 pilots on property) were all 121 CA's.
I think the primary reason for most was QOL in that they will be MSP based and very senior in that base. I am the only one in my class that wasn't looking for MSP as a base. Some have given up higher pay rates as 5 - 10 year CA's at other regionals just to secure that base here at Compass.
I know some will say that is crazy, but many people are willing to give up a little money to work from your hometown.
For the guy looking into a gouge, there are several really good posts about this if you run a search for Compass. Good luck in your hunt where ever it might lead you.
