I have nothing even semi-productive to add to this thread, so I'll add this:

Mod Note:
Ever since I became a moderator, and unbeknownst to most, I have been quietly socially engineering you guys, trying to understand human behavior in general and pilot behavior in particular. After 5 years in this volunteer job, I can't say that I learned very much.
So, now that I got that non sequitur out of the way, I'll just say that this thread will be kept open, but anybody who posts in a way that violates the TOS, common sense, or just simple human decency .... will go on a 3 day vacation. I used to encourage folks to write HSLD if they have any concerns about my actions, but I'm going to ask you not to bother him anymore. I wouldn't like it if all kinds of people clogged up my Inbox, so why should he?
Let's see if we can get something productive out of this topic. I think we can do it.

Ok ok ok Vagabond...since you asked nice.
In all seriousness GoJet is expanding, they're adding flying for Delta, and as far as I know from the outside, the upgrade time is considerably quicker.
Air Wisconsin hasn't seemed to see much movement in quite some time.
You'll hear arguments both ways, guys who will tell you you'll never see a jumpseat if you go to GoJet, guys who work there and say they've never had a problem with jumpseating, etc etc. It's a case of the grass is greener on the other side, with some labor issues and a boatload of anger to boot.
As was previously mentioned, get both offers, then weigh what works best for you.

If you want a fast upgrade, send your resume to Great Lakes. I would work for Great Lakes over GoJet.

Whichever gives you the best chance at a somewhat decent QOL. IMO, easiest commute.
