Which CPT instructor do you get? A great one, or a screamer?
Which sim instructor? Expert, or one that has trouble setting up the sim, and your 2 hours fly by, without enough being accomplished?
Which IOE Captain? A laid back guy, that lets you fly, and teaches you, or one that thinks you should fly at their level, and has you totally burned out? At least one recent student resigned right after he completed IOE.
I'm sure there are stories of people going through training without one single issue. But there are also many stories that show that there are manuevers being taught differently, different instruction on landings, and very subjective IOE standards. If you have previous 121 in a jet, ( not turboprop ) you should be ok. If you are coming from GA, this is not a good choice to start your career. Much better options.

What about half the IAC that they continuously claim "comes from bombardier" while other regionals flying the same plane have half the IAC.
The only reason you didn't share a hotel is because of our contract. This company does no favors. Don't forget that. The same contract which is falling behind by the lack of our ALPA leadership on continuous flight pay loss doing nothing but sending out polls.
