Said by the guy that hasn't worked   

You said yourself you haven't worked there in 10 years. Ever think things could have changed since then?

Metro is a good company. The current DO seems to actually care about the pilots and stands behind them as long as you are not an idiot. The pay is pretty low for the level of expectation from you, but the benefits are great, the PTO policy is changing 1 Jan, and there are rumors of a pay raise across the board.

I'd say if Metro has a base any where close to where you want to be, I would highly consider them. It's WAY better than any of the other companies I've worked for.
