Line checks were where the differences were seen, and it wasn't all line checks but I was a part of some pretty weird line checks at NJA. Had a line check from VNY to OAK that wrapped up a 13 hour day, and the captain got an almost 45 min debrief on the line check which was really an uneventful flight. I have never seen anything like that on a line check...
I am not trying to dispute what you are saying, more add more information for those that are following along. The AOM was rolled out at NetJets in the 2015-2015 time frame. It was not and still is not a perfect document. Up until the AOM became "The NetJets Way" standardization at NetJets was not happening. Some of those long debriefs may have been a result of the old guard trying to hang on to the way they were doing things.
