Just to play devil's advocate, the E175 could be a pro as it has a longer future than 50 seaters. Then again I wouldn't leverage the E175 over the CRJ900 in that argument.
I do think it's comical that one of Mesa's arguments is "we have no 50 seaters to park," yet they're gonna have to start parking planes if they don't start paying their pilots something close to the industry average.

Yes. Indeed.............

Is it worth it to go to a regional with substandard pay and benefits to fly a 175? Definitely not. Is under the wing jet time going to get you more ladies or an interview at mainline? Most likely not. At least it can get you a few more days off a month.

Cons:

To help you understand....Mesa is so bad that I need to list it as a pro.

You WILL BE SUED if leave early
You WILL get stuck in Hawaii with poverty wages, and sued if you quit early.
You MUST sign promissory note
Well hell, if you read this message board and still go to Mesa, you deserve what you get.

Everything else is probably spot on though.

Back to the thread- For those that answered the question, thank you. With recruiters not providing the whole story, misinformation and referral bonus, it's hard to get accurate information anywhere.

Iflyrc- at the risk of high jacking my own thread, can you please ask those being sued to contact me? I would greatly appreciate it! I'd like to learn more about the process. I've hired a labor relations lawyer to review the contract and will act according. If it's deemed a legal and binding contract, I will follow the terms and relief stipulated in the pilot contract; give 45 days notice and pay, period! I've done the math...a pilot is better off leaving early and paying vs staying with the very low pay. This applies to low time FO's only.
