Don't forget the additional risk of IOE, every thing you do and touch is being notated for posterity. 10% are going home without an ID. And no, the panic at the corporate level is palpable, and the training department is getting very astute at deciding when to cut the losses and buy you a ticket home. In my class 1 of 6 new hires went home without an ID.
Assuming you make it through IOE you still have the luxury of probation and working for at an at will company. The deal is never truly sealed. PRIA is not your friend either.....
