MK Airlines - Good outfit to fly for? Questions

I have read many of the previous posts about MK Airlines - most seem pretty negative. Obvious concerns about maintenance, cost-cutting, foreign crewing, etc. But I understand that a lot of this is opinion and second-hand (although some is personal experience).

Would you consider flying for MK Airlines if you had the opportunity out of Manston? Flying a DC-8 or B747 to exotic African destinations would be interesting flying - certainly not the computer button-pushing we seem to have today (computer cruise control).

So, do you know of any good reasons to fly for MK Airlines in your opinion? I have read many of the negative opinions...

Would you fly for MK Airlines if you had the opportunity? Do you know of any hiring planned? How do current pilots like the operation and schedules/destinations? How many pilots are based out of Manston (any other primary bases)? Lastly, what are the approx. salary ranges for newhire FOs?
