You just don't understand how bad it hurts the entire industry. The practice of undercutting EVERY other airline in the industry is the reason so many can not get ahead and hire you in the first place. Pay rates are crippled, contracts are held back, and morale is low chiefly because of Mesa's predatory business practices that put many of my friends in the streets in Hawaii.. and several more soon to be on the streets in the Mainland.
Why do you apply to a company when you know it is the WORST one in the business? Why don't you take experienced pilots advice?
There is no fixing Mesa.... but if you go there, don't expect a warm reception at your next airline interview. Any pilot who went there in the last 5 years knows exactly what they are responsible for in the industry.
Respectfully, I doubt you would actually say that if you knew any actual Mesa pilots. There are "LAMA"s at just about every major airline and cargo operators and other "better" regionals as well - Skywest, Republic, etc. Also with the new TA that is presented there is hope for Mesa to improve their QOL. I wish them the best.
