Pros

Good crews to work with. Middle level mgmt (chief pilots, etc) seem to have a decent sized umbrella to cover themselves from the BS that surely falls from upper level mgmt. I can say that in my honest opinion, the chief pilots seem to genuinely care about the pilot group.That's it.

Cons

Absolutely horrendous upper mgmt and union. Disgustingly hypocritical CEO that LIES, LIES, LIES, and then LIES some more. Republic Airways takes advantage of the pilot skill set more than any other regional in the industry. 8 years of working under an EXPIRED CONTRACT. Mgmt drug their feet for 8 long years on negotiations, taking advantage of, and hiding behind the railway labor act, and only now in their (lack of pilots induced) panic, do they want to sign a contract with their pilots. Expect a minimum of four years before you upgrade due to Mgmt parking airplanes in order to help staff the place. Quit the industry before you come to work at this embarrassing excuse for an "airline"!!!!

Pros

Flight Benefits are hard to use but nice

Cons

Typical depressing work environment. Right on par with classic corporate America. High expectations with normal midwest pay.
