Still a lot of assumptions based on yet other assumptions regarding a program we know nothing about other than three lines in an ALPA email. Let's hold off a bit before we get the pitch forks and torches, mkay?

It is a loss in the battle to get pilots. Not having the longevity increase for current pilots hurts and current or past 121 pilots will not consider coming to Compass now.
From my viewpoint it looks like a trick to get guys to go to Compass who assume it is the same deal as the other airline. Compass in their advertisement says, "New Hire Longevity Carryover", when that is not true. Imagine leaving another airline for Compass only to find your 6 years of experience results in only 3 years of carryover.

The absolute biggest slam to your pilot group was the current ALPA leaders extending this already very lackluster CBA without a pilot group vote. They need to answer to this one.

With this new agreement do you keep your longevity credit when you upgrade from FO to Captain?

I don't think us giving longevity credit is a "concession", other than sure it's a couple of bucks that could have went in my pocket, but TSH is paying more money to somebody, just not to me. I got a raise too from the increased CA rate, and ultimately yeah okay so somebody goes up a step or two on the FO rate, good for them, they've already paid some dues at another 121, we're making things better for them. Just like the ready reserve rules don't affect me, but I still would like to see them better for the new people because why pull the ladder up after ourselves?
And even if you say "oh well it's a concession", if it helps us staff, it's a WIN. Right now anything we can do to staff improves my QOL... no raised floor, more days off, maybe even green days again to drop those unproductive turns, no attempts to jr man me... I will happily let them pay a $25k signing bonus and give me nothing if it means I get back to 19-20 days off a month, thank you very much.
