Me.

The people are great I will agree. But, there comes a point where lack of compensation in spite of record profits becomes lack of respect. I didn't come to F9 for the money but I'm also not masochistic. I knew what the pay scale was when I accepted but this industry is a giant game of leap frog. Sooner or later, it will be our turn or drastic measures (like a strike) will occur.

If that's what it takes, then I am more than willing and ready. I think most other pilots here, as nice as they are described above, are as well.

I will tell you that the culture of the people whom you would work with as a pilot is friendly. The culture of the company is that ALL of its employees are resources and cost them money - anything they can do to cut costs is completely acceptable to them.

Keep that in mind when deciding . . .

BL - if you're looking to get paid out of this, I'd stay wherever I was (if fairly senior) and wait for a legacy. If you're not into being on reserve for years, kinda like the company of others and can strike up a conversation about something other than the contract or management and can afford to wait a year or 3 to get paid better, then consider it.
