You could still end up at a major or ulcc if that is what you want. If you come into the industry now and join Envoy, just know that the numbers Envoy is selling are not going to happen, at least not at the rates we are currently/expected to be flowing at. You can however come here and get your time, still trying to get hired outside of the flow and just have it as a backup.
Sound advice, if you have the bug to fly, you're not gonna be able to shake it, you should chase it. Sure Envoy isn't all rainbows and cupcakes but I've honestly had a great time so far. Pilots complain by nature, we're always going to want better pay, better flow, more days off, yadda yadda, but if you live in SPS and you want to fly, Envoy is a great place to do it.
