Pedro seems like a good guy and a respectable union president, but if the union doesn't find some new blood (especially in the negotiator ranks), the union is doomed.

With ~2,500 pilots on the property I'm optimistic there is a lot of talent. I'm not sure we use that talent to it's full potential.
I believe NJA can be a lot more than a company stuck between a regional and LCC. I hope I'm not overly optimistic, we certainly do need a little (a lot) of change here and there.
There are some aspects of the operation and company that are very nice.

Swimming in the pool
Gents, I too am taking a lap in the pilot pool. Here's a few of the things I heard at the interview. New hires will be put into Phenom 300 or Latitude; there is more need for CA's than FO's in that airframe (take that as you will, given the lack of upgrades). The Latitude, which is being purchased at a fast clip, will be awarded to the taller new hires. Upgrades will be 5-7 years (this is what I was told, don't shoot the messenger).
I was very excited to be hired by NJ, because it is a huge improvement over my past couple of 135 operations. But being in a pool is not the same as a job, is it? After reading this thread (and thank you for that!), I feel like I need to take a look at the regionals again. Would welcome further guidance, thoughts, wise-@$$ comments, whatever.
