Profit sharing is fun when times are good, other than that, its not much to even consider.
PS check at my regional was $9 once..... $140 another time, then about $250 as my highest.
I would rather take higher pay and better QOL over profit sharing any day.

profit sharing at the larger carriers can be an entire paycheck in excess of $20,000.
that’s an apples to oranges comparison.

That being said, im not giving anything up for PS and I would rather have higher base pay/overrides/betterQOL still. A company like ours will manipulate books and always show "not enough" for big PS checks.

You're not wrong but do you know what DL’s profit sharing is? It’s 10% of total compensation. I’d much rather have my 10% now then hope for some miracle of being profitable enough for the company to want to give us 10%. Not to mention we are already paid so low even if we did get profit sharing with a lower compensation then the other airlines it wouldn’t look like much.
Pay me now I don’t want to hope for profit sharing to pad my bank account.

Also, Lets remember the reason DL has profit sharing was because the company screwed MANY of their pilots out of their pensions. It isn't some nice thing the company gave them. It was a concession that so happened to work out for them now. Almost 15 years later.

If everyone else has it you won’t have an industry standard contract until you have it too.
