The extra 5k bonus is no longer offered.

Base is garunteed, they just offered me an extra 5k if I wanted another plane or base.

Because more choices are better than fewer choices when trying to attract new hires.

Amusing, but not true.

What I have seen however is Eagle as the premiere regional go from providing 95% of AMR's feed, having four different aircraft types and 7 bases spread throughout the country, having the best work rules and pay rates and stability in the regional industry, to being envoyed as the fill-in reserve airline for when AAG's regional partners can't fulfill their lift obligations, two bases, and among the lowest pay, work rules, and QOL in the industry. I don't say this for sympathy, but to point out how a once great company can be destroyed by a management team that doesn't understand that your employees create the value of the organization.

There is speculation, and I think rightfully so, that the ORD E-175 bid was simply a negotiating tactic for AAG to use as leverage with Republic. It would fit their MO of completely ignoring all effects of their decisions on employee morale in pursuit of the almighty dollar. RW's short "sorry/not sorry" letter, along with no announcement of an MIA base or even satellite base is just another slap in our face.

Exactly. Skywest and Republic both offer far better pay and base/equipment choices. Envoy is less competitive in the market for new hires without ORD E-175 as a new hire choice.

As a jfk refuge now in ord I'd love to hear this BUT that's currently hogwash. The 175s are going to DFW.

That's a bold statement from someone who is likely both unemployed and un-hireable
