Throw in some attrition and maybe you get down to 10 years. I think it is disingenuous how our recruiters showcase the flow. In all likelihood you could be hired at a major long before your flow.
Best to compare pay, work rules, reserve, growth, and qol.
Well said, and thank you! My intention from the beginning was to use the flow as a backup, but given your numbers it’s really tipping the scale in Republic’s favor. My plan was to get hired at a Regional and keep applying to the Majors, but with the numbers you posted if I went to PSA and flowed I’d be just shy of 50 and at that point I probably wouldn’t want to flow and start over.
