All this is just Business 101 and the bottom line is money. Alaska management is just more ruthless and Lorenzo-like than any other major/legacy airline management in existence today. If you want to prevail in this sick and twisted game, you have to think and act like your opponent. I don't advise FOs to leave or stay but apparently, the smart and able bodied ones are bailing for greener pastures at a higher rate than expected. Regardless of what happens in 2020 and beyond or let me rephrase, well beyond, nothing will change so as long as Angle Lake's legacy management carries on. And it will.
