I'm commuting from Delta's hometown and God willing I know either course will get me there in fairly short order. I didn't have any doubts until recently that I would absolutely be better off at Compass....
I'd also like to add that having to pony up $$ for travel and hotel for the 1 day orientation has to be an obstacle for some people, luckily I can afford it but certainly don't like it. I also have a year of 121 in the CRJ under my belt to consider being useful
You'd be silly not to come to 9E. You would have a 1 leg commute to NYC, DTW, or MSP. You'd be off of reserve in NYC by the time you finished OE. You'd be upgrading to captain in NYC by the time you hit 1000 121, if you aren't already there.
This is coming from someone that regrets their decision to come to 9E.
