My QOL and career/job happiness is about to increase dramatically. The point being is this. Every airline has something pilots complain about. This doesn’t stop even at the Big 3. I have friends at all of them.

The biggest thing is to find a job that FITS you. My last job was terrific for anyone that absolutely hated to spend a night in a hotel. Well guess what? After a few years that got extremely extremely boring for me. Flying the same 8-10 places and not having anywhere near good schedules.

Now I’m excited to fly all over the country, Caribbean, Central America and parts of SA. Once a line holder, to go fly my trip, have a minimum of 4 days off is going to be a god send for me. I have a number of friends here and they love it. A majority of them have no desire to move on.

This career is always about finding the right job. Whether it’s 121, 135, Corp. So for the O.P. figure out what’s important to you. Only you can answer it.
Congrats on jumping ship there are a few of us here from where you're coming from. I'm not going to lie it's not puppy dogs and rainbows here but I'll take it any day over where you are coming from. I will say be prepared for training here it's crazy, the instructors are good but the foot print and short number of sims is brutal. How long have you been at your current place?
