By the time you realistically flow (8 years), difference in CA pay is 83/hr vs 93/hr. Peanuts.
And if you add the bonus to the FO rates, the difference isn't that big.
Getting hired a year ahead from your peers would wipe any difference in regional pay. If you're in your 20's with the usual profile, that probably is worth the shot. But that depends on your risk tolerance.
Republic has great work rules, rigs etc. That's where the difference is.
Fair points, no shoe fits all i guess. To my logic a 10dllr difference at 75hrs a month 750 x 12 months = 9000 dollars. To me, that is not peanuts.
Second, not everyone upgrades at a min of 70 or 72, im getting 67.
Not a terrible gig, not complaining, works for me right now. I just wanted to share some info in case there are new hires and wanted to get a current perspective.
