True. NetJets probably is better qol than some/many/most (?) 121 feeders. However any NetJets FO under the age of 40-45 who has a crack at a Delta, or Southwest and doesn't try seriously needs to reevaluate. The hiring floodgates are opening wide with SWA dropping the type rating requirement and Delta running out of military pilots.
Obviously there will be cases where only NetJets is a good match, but for the vast majority...a young FO needs to move along. No future here and overall QOL is so much better at the majors.
Don't believe me? Just ask all those guys who left the majors to come here. Oh, yeah.......except for retired guys, there aren't any.
Other than pay and long call reserve, what's the big difference between the two? It's not as if I don't have friends in the industry to talk about such things with. I've done my homework and I've made my bed. Why aren't you at the majors?
