Default TPA base possibility and schedule

Hi Everyone. I’ve recently relocated to Tampa and am interested in Silver. ATP, 3000+ TT, 400+ multi, <100 turboprop, diverse experience from Alaska to Africa but no type ratings. One of the challenges I’m facing is that I need to be home >70% of nights due to current family situation and can't really move from Tampa right now. Looking for corporate/charter/contracts that meet those requirements but haven't found it yet, thus Silver seems interesting...

1) Can new hires get TPA based easily?
2) Do TPA based crews mainly fly day trips? How many days/month on average for overnights?
3) How long is training (MIA, right?)?
4) Would like any other comments from TPA based pilots on QOL, pros/cons of working for Silver.

Thanks in advance!
