ExpressJet has duty rig as well, it's called a 3.75 minimum per duty period, which is scheduled at a max of 13.5 hrs. I guess our trip rig would be 15 hrs minimum for 4 days. Not that great, but they are in there. Plus, you usually see well over 4 hours a day.
Not sure how much that stock option is good now since it is near its 6 month low, but ExpressJet also allows you to purchase at a 15% off rate, even though I would advise strongly against that one. Plus, I'm pretty sure they have to hang on to the stock for a certain time frame.
The best part I like about ExpressJet, is the 100% 401K match of 4%-6% of your salary, which starts immediately. They also contribute an additional 2.5%-6% of your salary to your 401K. My first year I put in 4% of my salary and they gave me 6.5%. Thankfully, that was not touched in this salary reduction request.
