You obviously haven't tried mesa. Give that a whirl and report back to us.

So you wanted to prove you’ve been in this industry for a minute. Plus inflation has mostly been flat is these years.
When I started not too many years ago, new hire FAs were making more than new hire FOs.
Things are and will be changing quickly.

Double haha to the guy who says “at least Expressjet has United”

at some point in the past, things changed. There is a growing CFI shortage, along with the general Pilot Shortage. When your flight school is 90+% foreign students without a Green Card, none of them can work as CFIs...

teacher/professor/ tennis pro/ golf pro can be careers and flight instructor needs to join those ranks and it is amazingly about time.

First of all... No, I didn't read all of the previous pages. I'm sure it was all a civilized discussion. LOL!!

Skywest has been a great place to work over the last 20+ years. As a newhire, I was just happy to be here. As a senior pilot, I'm still happy to be here. Looking back, I've had many fantastic overnights in some cool places. Most recently, 34 hr layovers in SIT. The job is as good or as bad as you make out to be....

Realize that "online reviews" (products, services,etc) are a place for people to vent. APC is mostly a forum for people to vent.

Stockholm syndrome at it's finest. Anyone that is happy with Skywest should compare their payscales to Endeavor. Anyone that is happy at a regional should compare Endeavor to mainline.

If you guys are happy with Skywest and their abysmal pay, I invite you to sell me all your worldly possessions for 1/3 of what they're worth. That's exactly what you are doing with yourself and your time. You are selling it to the company for less than what it's worth. Kids to you guys overwhelmingly voting down that crap package the company tried to sell you. Now build on that momentum and demand the best rates in the industry. You are worth it, aren't you?

Stockholm syndrome? SkyWest isn’t keeping the pilots against their will.

Saying, "Well, at least we are still better than Mesa, is sort of like saying that MREs taste better than goats tongue or eyeballs."

While entirely true (been there, done, that, got the t-shirt), it's scarcely what anyone would call an OVERWHELMING endorsement.

Stockholm syndrome is well documented in victims of abusive relationships. You guys are the ones choosing to stay in it and I hear plenty who sympathize with/defend Skywest.

No it's not. But OO is still not YV. BTDT, got both tee shirts. And the goat parts vs. MRE tee shirt too. Actually I'll eat the goat if it's been nothing but MREs for a while.
