Short version is if your at Envoy and not commuting life should be bearable. Soon you will be a captain. The financial issues if any will go away. In 3-5 years you will have a guaranteed path for success. The real comparables of what your asking is small.
Let’s look at 5years from now.
You will get a ticket to work at NJA/ Envoy You live in base so that can’t be a factor.
You will be a FO at NJA basically making the same as a Captain at Envoy. So that will be a non issues.
Depends on the reality of flow if it’s 5-7 years you will be getting a slot at AA. Soon..
Hopefully at NJA at 7 years you may get Captain.
So far not much difference in compensation.
Year 10
AA- guaranteed 16% retirement contribution and roughly 180k-200k not a bad life
NJA- Not quite up to speed on Retirement contribution but I hear it’s good. Roughly 150-200k.
I hate to say this but your in a position flip a coin. But it’s a good place to be. Only thing I can say is you have time in service at Envoy.
