Oh, it's at best gray. It's really hard to tell. Might be a way of assuring some kind of a commitment...but also might be a way of getting a guy to be on call 24/7 and barely fly for not much dosh. If it were me, I'd hash it all out with these guys re: pay/QOL/expected flight volume, etc etc etc before I pulled the trigger.
PS. I'm not sure what Methods does, but at Omni it was the same as the freight ops I've worked for, give or take. Company indoc, company groundschool, company flight training, go to a base and do some IOE, fly with (in my case) the chief pilot in your own base, off the leash. No sims.
