I was forced to retire from Horizon as a 17 year captain before the new age 65 rule came into effect. I submitted a pilot application but haven’t heard from anyone yet.
I know of a check-airman that left Horizon before 9/11 for United and when he got furloughed Horizon wouldnt re-hire him even though they were hiring at the time. He eventually went to Skywest and is now at Alaska.
In their exit interviews they are known for saying dont burn any bridges. What bridge! If you leave there is now bridge back...You are better of working at Menards or Home Depot. Enjoy the rest of your life. Stay away from Horizon's stress inducing management team.
