A year on reserve will beat the "class" out of an Englishman.
Perfection is an illusion, but if you can, get to a real airline with a real CBA. We will always be behind with no movement.
In 2019, when the CBA passes, it will be a fine place to work- for now, you'll be away from home 3-5 days a month more than your counterparts, have garbage insurance and fly 3 day/10hr island/west coast trips. This is not in dispute- even ask the juicers.
Enjoy the ride and keep those apps/resume updated.
