A thought for anyone thinking of coming here... Upgrade is currently 28 months and reserve is 6 months. This is during a period of growth and movement. With coronavirus and a slowdown happening, those times will likely increase. If a fast upgrade and short reserve are important, go elsewhere.
Also, consider how top heavy we are with all the senior guys making a career out of Endeavor. That's fine and I'm not critical of them. What this means for you is when the music stops, you will be stuck lower on the seniority list. Other airlines are offering much better packages. Our management and Delta overlords are being slow to react to the slowdown in hiring and other airlines are doing more to recruit, take care of their employees and attract new talent.

About seniority, I don't think our list is any more top heavy than rah, envoy, or xjt. we're probably more senior than the others though. You're right there.
Upgrade times will come down, then likely go back up again because of that bubble from last year. But reserve times for someone hired now should be MUCH shorter than they were.

I heard some of the planes we are suppose to get may go somewhere else. That will slow upgrade time and increase reserve time. Maybe QOL gets better if we do not have to staff more planes. I bet mgmt keeps this quiet until the last possible second.
