Does this sound realistic / likely to anyone there now or recently?

Our "3-pilot account" stayed at 2 pilots for 9+ months while we were looking for a replacement for the FO that quit.
JLA burned through 4-5 potential FOs who got the straight poop from the Lead. The guy they hired was shoveled the same $h!t in the interview, but was never given the opportunity to speak with the current crew.
He lasted around 5 months, just like the guy he replaced.

In today’s market, it is my opinion, there are far better choices pretty much anywhere. My experience at Jetlinx was quite negative. In 25 years of flying it is the only employer in which my daughter said “daddy, I hate your job”. Take that for what it is worth but unless it changed from the 8 days a month off their schedule isn’t competitive pay is average at best. Think real hard about 8 days a month off, real hard.

Kinda breaks your heart, and makes you wonder what the point of this career is.
