It's wise to consider what your minimum salary would be. This would be the $7500 signing bonus (if they are still offering that, check with your recruiter) + $40/hr * 75 hrs/month * 12 months. That would be minimum guarantee. It comes out to $43,500. My per diem is going to be roughly $7000 for my first year. So a total gross salary of $50,000 your first year is not unreasonable.
Republic is not a wholly-owned company and does not have any flow through agreements.
The current upgrade time is 3.9 years and seems to be dropping slowly.
