Being a 'career legacy FO' may be ok financially, but career satisfaction is not solely monetary. I wouldn't be happy if I was in the right seat for the entirety of my career at a legacy, especially if I had never been in the left seat of an Airbus or Boeing in a prior life. I guess it just depends on what you're after.
