Since you asked...
I am not here looking for a job (yet). I frequent this board to help answer the military questions..specifically, the USN reserve questions.
I am 3+ yrs out from retirement. I have skills in hand and I have had several chances to leave and I stayed. It is obvious from the statement/question above that you never did and you never will get it. FWIW, most of the people getting out now are fed up with the war time deployment schedules. The "crappy leadership/my job sucks" group is the minority.
All organizations have bad people. The airlines are no different.
