Valid point. A UAL newhire takes a pay cut when they finish IOE and are released to the line.
93 hours, plus $50/day in per diem, plus 16% PRAP, plus hotel, plus positive space to/from home on days off, uniforms paid for, etc. DAL really screws their new guys on that end.
You can thank UALALPA and the pilot group for looking out for the half wingers. That right there should speak volumes.
