Why endeavor and not republic?
I posted a similar thread on republics airline forum, now im posting one here. Why endeavor? Aside from pay, i want NYC base and looks like i can get it from both. I hear training is taking 4 months and reserve in NY for the 900 is taking 9 months. So, why Endeavor?

I'm not the head cheerleader for EDV (nor the head hater) but if you WANT NYC, then short of a mainline, this is BY FAR the best place. You will get to hold it instantly on either plane and become more senior faster and this IS your first base of upgrade opportunity by a long shot. The premium in pay that Delta is paying us to put up with that operating environment is significant for a reason but it adds up fast in your bank account too. It's a mess on a daily basis but if you go into things (as a line holder) understanding that the only thing sacred is your show time to start a trip, with lots of extra pay likely (and good grounds for a fatigue call if needed) then you are in the right place.
