I’ve been ORD Envoy and SkyWest. I would ask what your 10 year plan is and if you want QOL the next 3 years. If your into QOL go SkyWest. If you want no QOL but a flow. (Maybe.. I wasn’t going to wait for what would have been 17 years... worked out for me) then go to Envoy but be ready for a ruff few years.. but if you want to stay east. I would go to Republic..
edit: i am refering to most east coast CRJ bases

I disagree. My QOL is great compared to my non-airline life. I drive to work, get paid very well, ability to control my schedule to get most of what I want and work under a great contract. If you are a complainer now, you’ll eventually start complaining again after you’re with a major for some time. Trust me.

While I agree that some people are just miserable no matter what, life does get dramatically better at most majors.

With there being SO many options in ORD for airlines I can promise you that you'll likely find a better option than Skywest. The absolute blatant lack of respect upper management has for their pilot group is amazing. They are beyond out of touch. Envoy would be a good bet with new pay scales and a guaranteed flow to AA.

When a grumpy F/O upgraded, he invariably became a grumpy CA. The huge pay raise did not improve his attitude.
