well I don't think it's a secret that, given the choice, any pilot in his right mind would choose SkyWest over TSA right now. However TSA isn't as bad as some would make it out to be either. You're gonna fly and work with some great people there. With the exception of the whole getting furloughed, and dealing with the general bad relationship between pilots and management, my time there was very enjoyable. I never once flew with a captain that made my day a living hell. I flew with a flight attendant who was a *****, but you run into a bad apple everywhere I suppose. However as good as TSA was, SkyWest is widely accepted as one of the best rj companies to work for in the country with an upgrade time currently at least 1/3rd the length of TSA's. When you get the time for SkyWest (1000 tt, 100 multi, 100 instrument) I would certainly recommend putting your resume. But since you're low time, Trans States will take you and train you very well for the jungle jet, I wouldn't tell you to hold out for another company if you aren't even close, get some experience, and have fun flying the jet. Hope that answers your question.
