Right now, the most expensive regional feed in the country are the 7 CRJs SkyWest is flying for Alaska, covering for Horizon. Why? Because right now no one else can do it.

For a temporary stay, Compass seems reasonably solid. A valid point is made above about their contracts, but I know nothing about that. The depressing truth about QX is that planes on the assembly line intended for them aren't going to them, and they need to get their act together for that not to continue.
Good luck. And I will add that the vast vast majority of people I fly with at a regional are highly professional, pleasant folks to fly with. Something about these forums doesn't bring out the best in folks.

The only control you have is where you work and how you choose to conduct yourself when you are here (or there).

Well, I came on here looking for a little insight into this industry. What I have seen on here is a bunch of whiny cry babies that all think they have the biggest dick in the room. I sure hope I can find some better in the cockpit.
