If you don't want to join V Aus then don't bag out the people that do. All airlines offer lower packages on start up and they will get better as the company builds. I myself am a turbine captain with a rather large company, I interviewed for a V position and am still waiting to hear back. I agree that the company is not for everyone but on the end (as it has been said in this thread) money isn't everything.
Pilots are meant to stick together, not be a bunch of wingeing idiots.
