I've never put in an app at SWA because I don't think I'd enjoy the flying they do. I'd also never put an app in at Spirit ( barring the great recession) because, well, they have a **** poor reputation. ( same goes for Frontier/Allegiant, SouthernCargo etc..)
I had a guy trying to get me to apply to Miami Air back in 2006. I did 5 minutes of research and realized no way would I want to work there.
If your buddy had went to SWA, JB, or one of the legacies and *****ed, I'd say he's a lost cause. But because he's *****ing at Spirit I say he should have researched the company a little better.

Just be advised that if they bring you to CMH and you toe their line in the interview, you'll be placed in a pool for who knows how long before they maybe call you for a class date in the mighty Phenom in which you will languish for years yanking gear, loading baggage, fetching the coffee, restocking and cleaning the jet, and wistfully watching your friends across the runway doubling your paycheck for less work in a Delta, AA, United, Alaska, (insert airline here) cockpit.
Buyer beware.
