Unions are a scam.
I'm sure this will get removed by a triggered mod.
Have fun over an entire career at Flex and let us foolish union employees know how you feel later on- like during the next economic downturn or any other time that pilots aren't in high demand. While the pay has improved over NetJets in many instances, we shall see how long this lasts. There are many former Flex pilots at NetJets and I would guess there are about zero former NetJets pilots at Flex. There is likely a good reason for this. The pilots I've heard from who left Flex to come to NetJets have noted distinctly worse daily quality of life at Flex- that has to be horrific knowing very well how bad it is at NetJets. That said, I haven't spoken with any of Red Label pilots that made the jump. Honestly, I can't imagine why anyone would want to go to work at either under the current conditions of pilot demand. Both choices are bad unless a career long horrific commute is the only other choice.
