Anyone hired today will undoubtedly see a lot of movement and a quick rise to senior FO, but not a quick upgrade.
Good point, but a lot of FO's are getting picked up elsewhere.. New hires are getting current and moving on or get hired just to wait to hear back from Delta or the like. That will only increase throughout the coming years.
