The competition is there and gets stronger everyday. Senior Mgmt needs to realize this, or else we will become a Horizon. But who knows, these days it seems they prefer giving away airplanes instead...

I believe they will of they feel they have to. It's what BG/MW didn't say in that volunteer email that concerns me. It's a voluntary opportunity on days off, but again, why would they force upon new upgrades if they didn't intend to force it on new captains out on the line via reserve assignments. I mean, doesn't cost them any more if its a RSV trip, right? Its still within the guarantee. I agree that they will probably use FOs first, but obviously they believe they will run out with this whole program being offered in the first place.
‘you guys pass your MV, and btw you two are also checked off for right seat qualified’
Also this group of pilots probably the most money hungry group, at least I can still remember the first time I saw the big jump on my paycheck, somehow make me want to fly more.
Disclaimer: I won’t get right seat qualify unless I become LCA!

Not too long ago I had to pay for a crashpad at Compass in training. Delta its the same story. Done double occupancy before too.
Its the right thing to do to provide a private room. Nothing helps you focus on succeeding in training more than not having to stress about where your sleeping and transportation to/from SIM. But they didn't start giving them away in 2015 because they cared about that, but because they were the last that regional that DIDN'T offer them and weren't filling classes.

How are we supposed to be able to recruit new pilots when we're making them bunk up in training? That's like screaming "we are a cheap company and you can expect this type of treatment" on indoc day. 
Bad move. Extended Stay Eagan is crappy enough even with your own room. The market is great, pilots can go to any company they want. Don't give them another reason to look elsewhere.

When a good portion of Compass pilots started we had to pay for our own hotels or crashpads throughout training and our pay was 25/hr. "Back in my day.....
