You speak some truth, but for example:
No ASAP (supposedly on the way)
No CPLDC (supposedly on the way)
401k match is less at WGN
health insurance is more expensive
You will make more after about 4 or 5 years at Atlas on the 777 or 747
WGN doesn't have a quick upgrade anymore
Economy class travel
Permanent Equipment locks
No bunks on the -11
No vacation cash out
This isn't a bash post, things have improved a lot here, we literally just got short term, long term disability, and loss of license. We've always had true home basing. Like someone said, the grass is always greener I guess.
