All of them have complaints about QOL, pay, reserve, upgrades, exc. I don't doubt that what you all have been saying is legit, but the grass isn't much greener anywhere else. Envoy is a legit option. Might be the best one, might be the worst one, but they all beat where I'm at now.
Anyone who advocates other pilots not coming here is either junior and too ignorant to know what stagnation feels like or super senior and it wouldn’t effect him. Pilots leaving Envoy is the only way to significantly impact to negations. A lack of new hires would cause stagnation and a huge decrease is QOL.

Briefly until pay/contract changed. Your statement makes it seem like it’s an all or nothing game.

I hate going off message but stagnation is impossible here with PPs flowing, and what's more, you can add an unlimited number of reserves underneath a guy and it won't put him any closer to getting a line. We're already fighting with WAY too many people for WAY too little flying. More bodies isn't the answer. And I say this as someone whose flow is directly tied to the size of the airline.

I'm guessing you werent here when we had less than 1,500 pilots and only two bases. With rumors of further shrinking to just one base. That happened almost overnight from being a large regional.

Some people also said that "no way" Eagle would shrink like that, but it did, and it was so miserable that junior manning was being abused by the company, and you had to make sure they paid you for it.

And, most importantly, the company was violating the flow for a few years, and holding people back from rightfully flowing.

We are shrinking rapidly on the 145 side. How does more hiring help?

Hiring helps to keep the flow moving. But with regards to QOL, we'll you're right, that's a different matter that Envoy management really doesn't care much about for its pilots, including paying us proper wages.

What do you refer to as shrinking rapidly? Fleet shows steady at 109 airframes through the end of the year. NYC showed some shrinkage of lines this summer but all others were increased. Over the winter the trend reverses.
