The bad:
Commuting to reserve here sucks. Pre-assigned 4am rap. No long call. Some CPO’s are non existent when trying to get in touch with someone. No minimum duty day or trip rigs. Inefficient scheduling due to the way other regionals get first crack at things. API is bad. Crew scheduling often feels like it is out right combative against crews. Can’t drop trips. Inefficient use of reserve pilots. The entire red/redder system needs to go.

Anyway, if you keep your head down and blinders on you won’t notice much. Every job has its issues however depending on fleet, hire date and base your experience here can swing from amazing to crappy very quickly.
