All that said, the time to go was before Delta, United, and American hired thousands of folks. The wave has likely crested, still great opportunities there, but perhaps not as crazy good as the last couple years.

So long as the Brown FO upgrades prior to retirement he will have substantially more tax advantaged retirement income here than at United. This matters far more for someone starting in their 40s than in their 20s. A 20 something has time to capitalize on the time value of money from cash over cap that is invested in non-tax advantaged accounts.
