Whoa there PP!! Not everyone has the raw deal you appear to have. My conditions of service are vastly superior to any of the contract company deals out there. PLUS and its a big plus...(a) I dont have to travel God knows where to cover for relief pilotage, every week, and (b) won't get "dumped" by my beloved company when work is thin on the ground!!
I suspect you've walked into your contract with blinkers on!!
Having spoken to a number of DE pilots over the years, I can whole heartedly recommend it.....
