You want ultimate QOL, go to Spirit. You want less QOL and big money, go AA. Just depends on what you're after.
You've got it partially right. There is big money to be made at AA. The whole argument about going to Spirit is absurd when you have the opportunity to fly for AA. Unless you don't have a degree, have checkride failures or skeletons in the closet. Those are 99% of your hires at Spirit and they wouldn't cut it at an Envoy interview.
