Bottom line at the bottom…I don’t think you’re going to find we have a well-defined or unified culture at Delta. You will find it all - the good, the bad and the ugly - and your fellow pilots will also find the good, the bad and the ugly while likely defining those things very differently from you.

I’m happy here. I suspect I’d be no more or leas happy at any other legacy carrier.
