Others could elaborate more, but you have less control over your own monthly schedule. I don't think it's a bad gig if you live at your base - a lot of days you'll be paid to sit at home.

I did/still do want to work for Envoy. It seems like a reputable, stable company with plenty of work for the foreseeable future. I just want to make sure I'm making smart career moves. I try to gather what I can to make the right move but I feel like it's a big gamble.

RSV is not that bad AS LONG as you live on base. On the other hand, if you gotta commute on RSV, life will be difficult at times.

Hate to say it, but it's no longer reputable, stable, or full of work.

You will learn that everything in this industry is a gamble. The only thing certain is that you should NEVER chase upgrades.

Other than that, if a large, established, stable Regional offers you the chance to drive to/from work then it should be a no-brainer. Listen too much to the average APC crowd and you will go down the same rabbit hole others before you have gone down.

Ummm... Remember your current employers history?

It's cyclical. Envoy could bounce back. There's just not a lot to be optimistic about over there at the present moment.

Word is, from our union this time, that we'll know this week if the company is going to begin "formal" talks again to place the remainder of the aircraft here and create a path going forward for envoy. If they enter into formal talks again I'm confident our current leadership will reach an acceptable deal and this place will be a desirable place to be once again! Hang tight.... We'll know soon enough....

I am confident our union leadership will do everything in their power to get a good deal for the pilots. My confidence however is low that management will agree to such a deal. They are so set on their 12/4 that this whole thing may be dead before it even begins.

I hear ya! It is a positive sign though if they do decide to talk again. If they don't ... Well.... We all know what will happen!
