Spirit year 5 FO is 176hr and you will be a line holder, living in base. Skywest DEC is 142 hr and you will be commuting to reserve. Skywest CA pay doesn't hit 176 until year 8. You will be perpetually junior, as every FO upgrading will knock you down in seniority. They also have a ridiculous training contract you have to sign, so you will be on the hook for that, as well. You won't hit $176 until year 4 at PSA. Still, commuting to reserve.

I think your best course of action would be to ride out Spirit as long as possible and contact a career counseling service like Raven, Emerald Coast, etc and find a path to a legacy. Commuting to a DEC job one of the worst jobs in this business.
