I am in my fifth year here. If I were in my first or second and Delta called I'd be gone in a second. The problem here isn't just the management. In fact it's not really management at all. They are just doing what they do. The problem here is the pilot group. This pilot group consists mainly of older, close to retirement, beat down with no fight left in them pilots. Add in the fact they we are sharply fragmented in multiple directions due to previous mergers and a completely incompetent union who only cares about the senior nAAtives. The chances of us securing a contract that's worth the paper it's written on is nill. That being said, as far as the day to day stuff goes it's a great job with lots of great people to fly. Every airline has its turn at the top but if I were a betting man, I'd say the chances of overall having a great career are much better at Delta. My only hope here is that I'll spend the majority of my career senior enough to be insulated from out terrible contracts.
