Don't underestimate the challenge or the value of the experience to be gained.
You forgot to mention that they also have a fleet of Airbus 319s and 320s and operate holiday charters for both Apollo and Ving. ATR pilots can apply to transfer to the Airbus fleet.
I don't think you and him are talking about the same airline at all, I think he's on about emerald airlines
