You guys are hilarious, if not predictable...
Plans right now are to grow as required to meet demand. In a particularly ironic twist of fate, the airline no one wanted to work for will now likely be the only 121 pax carrier growing and hiring over the next 6-12 months.
If you don’t mind moving the throttles yourself, calculating your own VNAV profiles and making dirt, I say come on over. I need the growth and more bodies in the door so I can upgrade.

I honestly don’t see a lot of the top guys at XJT coming here though since I think they’ve had enough and were quite vocal prior to the decision about not accepting concessions of any kind. However, if they do come here they will indeed be starting at year one pay per our CBA. And I would be vehemently opposed to having it any other way simply because this is the way the seniority system works, like it or not. I tolerated DECs coming here, collecting more in bonus than I made my first year here only because I knew I would leapfrog them all when I upgraded.

There is no such thing as a "short course" in our training program.
