Anybody Really Taking The KAL Deal???

Just got the package from DPI for the KAL 777 Captain position for someone with no type. Does anyone really sign up for this offer? Seems the compensation is quite low and benefits non-existent, few days off. Or am I wrong to compare it to a major U.S. carrier? And they require a full 3 weeks GS and 2 weeks Sim even thought you've just bought your rating, why don't they just do the rating ride/oral themselves and be done with it and send you the bill or make you sign a bond? As it is, if you buy your rating they hit you for $15,000 if you quit before the first year.
Do other contractors offer better deals?
By the way, the ANA 767 Captain payscales I've seen look pretty pitiful, too.
