Been out of EK for a few years now. Glad I went there, it was an adventure and opened doors for me. Would I go back? Nope. There are only 2 things I miss about EK - the money and flying cargo (yes, I know - I just enjoyed the total lack of BS from pax and crew and the interesting places you go).
I'm very happy to be working in a legacy carrier with proper terms and conditions, fairness, transparency etc, but most importantly I really value living in a relatively civilised country, with real seasons and real people. I also no longer feel that I exist solely for the purpose of working.
