Not really a hostility, but the halftruth is bothering ppl in the know.
General public and ALPA is under impression that NWA HR was doing actual hiring at Compass, which is incorrect.

Compass hiring was done by Compass HR, newly formed and trained, with an exNWA medically retired pilot (great guy) sitting in during the interviews.

That's the fact. Is typing this too condescending and snobby of me? So-so sorry that is not what I mean.

It doesn't change anything and I am sure they did their best to select great people, but that was not NWA selection.
Time will tell. If they are not pulling their weight there will be no mercy, that's the mood in the office.

Don't shoot the messenger.
