How about ORD? I’m starting training soon as well. I plan to bid for whatever airframe is likely to get me to ORD the quickest and has the better schedules. Appreciate your willingness to share this info with us FNGs.

The 145 in ORD has 90-100+ hr lines with 12 days off until you get more senior. They'll be 4 days on and 2-3 off. As your seniority climbs you should get wknds and holidays off.
Additionally, you can get more days off doing the line improvement window.
I can't speak to the schedules of those getting relief lines but maybe they can chime in.

Not all lines are into the 100s on credit with 12 days off. It's easy to have more days off if you want when you're off reserve.
Edit: also still new, less than a year on line.

10m on property EWR FO hard line holder since August, average 65-90 credit hours, as a junior lineholder you will get only 12 days off, but during line improvement window you could get more days off or exchange your low hours trip for better one. For example for Dec I was awarded 96h line with 12 days off, during ILIW I traded my trips and got 19 days off with 64h of credit. Christmas Eve will be back around 7pm and New Year eve will be home

Maybe someone can provide you some schedules. However, I will say you will fly a lot. Most lines are 12 days off and 90-110 credit hours. This will be much the same as Trans States as they are also short on pilots.
Envoy will have you sitting reserve a lot and not flying as much. People are getting lines here very quickly.
As far as schedules, I doubt Trans States will be much different. Maybe slightly shorter segments.
Expressjet is a much better company than any Trans States Holdings carrier. Much more infrastructure and the backing of United. Look up Hulas Kanodia to see how he runs those companies (GoJet, Trans States and Compass). Not a good environment.
Trans States has a quicker upgrade but with 19-06 out soon it will come down to the same upgrade time unless you want ORD. Upgrade is still fairly senior there due to all the ASA guys moving in and the base shrinking. That too should change.
EWR and IAH on the EMB-145 will get you the quickest line and allow you to upgrade at or near the required 1,000 hrs 121 time or about a year and a half to two years.
Where will you live/commute from?
