I also have an offer from Envoy. I like a lot of what's going on there but the trips appear to be uncommutable and inefficient. I'm concerned about maintaining that schedule for a long period of time. Republic may be the best fit for this Atlanta-based candidate. A lot more questions than I thought but this should be helpful to others as well.
1- do you have concerns of the companies financial situation? Short/long term?
2 - do you enjoy the comradery of your fellow pilots?
3 - do you think the pay and benefits are competitive?
4- quality of the training department
5- do they have AQP?
6- Is DCA a desirable domicile?
7- time on reserve with a DCA base?
8- can I expect DCA out of training?
9- how difficult is it to drop a trip?
10- if you need time off unexpectedly, do you call in sick, tell them you need time off or just work because they are intolerant to these types of requests?
11- are Republic trips (pairings) efficient or long days and little flying?
12- are most trips commutable with late starts and early endings?
Thank you !
