Well the aircraft are poorly maintained, the schedule sucks and the upper management is a big head scratcher.
Oh and the pay for VFR Capt is 29k and IFR capt I think is around 31k which in Hawaii where milk is 6.00 a gallon is peanuts.
They actually just fired a friend of mine because he refused to fly an aircraft that was near max gross weight into a field that is 1700ft with no working flaps. They take away the captains right to make the go/no go decision. But, hey they hire VFR Captains with 500tt so what do you expect. If you want to know more just ask me.
