I believe it is easier to get hired as a captain vs FO. But they have high turnover in both seats due to the difficulty of the job and burn out.
When you need something, special days off or have a personal issue. Management seems to be accommodating and treats everyone fairly. As I said in the above post, once you assert yourself in not flying in what you feel is unsafe conditions, the company accepts your decision and totally backs off.
This is very important because over the years at many 135 operators this has not been the case. Lots of intimidation.
Again hope this info helps and best of luck.
Thanks for all the great info!! Really helped
