I've read in threads a lot say to choose United because Delta has hired so many pilots in 2015 (pre pandemic) and WB captain (A3330/350)would take so long but at the same time so many choose Delta this 2021/2022 I'm wondering how come?
Mostly basing/ease of commute/living close to family/friends, the rest is mostly just noise. No amount of WB opportunities would make me give up being able to sit reserve from my house. WBs are great and all, but they're certainly not the be-all and end-all of a highly lucrative career. Personally, I'd decide which place you'd rather live, then your decision is made. Best of luck.
