I was hearing the exact same thing from Delta guys just a few years ago. And talk to any of them hired around '92, those guys still would say nothing good about the airline.
Airlines are roller coasters. They all have their ups and downs. Nothing stays the same in this industry for long. But please, don't hesitate to go with someplace you think is better.
The grass is always greener on the other side. Remember the pilots that left FedEx to go to United?
The major issue we are facing with AA is a pilot cultural issue IMHO. As mentioned a million times before, we still have procedures that date back from CR Smith. Lots of pilots that are unwilling to look outside their bubble. A union that sides with management or self-serve the senior guys, etc. ^ 3
Remember: You earn the right to complain by doing something about the problem.
