Been in since late 2007. I thought they were very nice people, will be staying where I am for now, but no harm to have a first glimpse at the airline via a very human, no tricks interview. I have read 'dirty washing' here about Monarch, but having talked with pilots currently serving, and those who have been there, they are thumbs up.
Good luck to them I say, and if people are staying, then take it as a good point. If you are in a pool for them, you are known to them, and future opportunities when they open up will be so much more accessible.
