With that said, UPS is the only one doing this so they are either the smartest or dumbest in the room.
IMO it would mean a major QOL hit for junior pilots. Today your QOL is driven by seniority in one of many small pools (BES) and relatively junior pilots can 'be senior' by staying on the bus or guppy in a junior base. Pay by seniority would all but guarantee a flattening of the seniority across the airline.
