What about United and Delta, where would y’all go?

CJOs at both, live in a city where both have bases. Have researched the contract comparison of both and they are both pretty similar except for profit sharing.. cannot figure out how to make the appropriate informed decision. Any guidance?
I think Delta’s reserve system especially if you live in base is better. The concept of global reserve at UAL would cause heads to explode at Delta. That can of course change in the next contract. Probably better advancement at UAL.
The overtime provisions at Delta can make you wealthy if you live in base. The reserve system drives many trips to double pay. Crediting well over 100 hours a month is not difficult in many categories. I have no idea how that works at UAL. Short term seniority will get a rapid boost over the next 18 months as Delta deferred hiring and is playing catch-up.
