At Horizon the ANC pilot schedules are usually ANC-FAI twice per day. No overnights, only day trips. The base is very senior though for FOs. As a new hire based in ANC you will sit reserve and never fly. Ever. We have ANC FO's transferring back down to PDX because in 1 year they only flew maybe 100-200 hours total and they will never reach their 1k 121 time before they're due for upgrade.

So if you don't want to fly I guess it can be good, but it will make recurrent training a nightmare for you since you never touch the controls.
