Yeah. Maybe they should look at companies like Boutique. People applying like crazy, and no 2 year contract needed, better pay, better benefits, better quality of life. Same business.
So they must be doing something wrong if the only way to get pilots is through one of those contracts.

If at least it's a 2 year contract, in a hell of a company where you're gonna learn a lot, become a better pilot, and enjoy the raid (including semi-decent pay) then it wouldn't be that horrible. But if someone can mess with your PRIA.....no way.
I respect SO much flight instruction, honestly....but it ain't for me. I'm 6'1'' and 280lbs, and I'm not ashamed to say I can get dizzy easily. So it's a no go for me. A student deserves a CFI that will get involved 100% in his learning process, and I'd be doing that 50% of the time and the other 50% opening the window to get some fresh air and chewing ginger gum haha.

If you are still looking for info on them you can PM me as well. I can give the pluses and minuses. It wasn't as bad as people say it was...especially from those who did not fly there and go off the opinions of a few disgruntled pilots who left.
