If you don't care where you are based or arn't too bothered about the lack of any base transfer policy, then that's a plus. Additionally the lack of any transparent leave system shouldn't bother you. Contractual terms are both loose and variable & no real improvement of note has ever really been made. That said, it's a living & probably no where as bad as some of the real bottom feeders. However it should be much better considering their never ending crewing 'problems.' Problems mostly created by the culture washing throughout the organisation.
I left as a captain a number years back and I've never regreted it. I don't miss the roster as I wasn't truly 5/4 for quite some time. Yes the operation is slick & safe and I learned quite a lot from it.
Just be wary that if you have 5K on type with 6.5K total, they'll be asking the question why you're not a captain already? However that's their world. They don't really consider what goes on with other airlines
