Flying the flag comes with some advantages but they do not seem to be things of high value for you.
It is great you have this clarity early on!
Just find it interesting immediately there's two more comments after mine both conflicting in view set again! I definitely have clarity as to what I want from the job, just not where to do it!
I'm not familiar with the new pay deal but can't imagine it's 'much more' money over a career at either company based on the information I've seen? Beyond easyJet's obviously quick scaling early command etc.
At the end of the day I appreciate this is a decision that is ultimately entirely personal, I think I just have some frustration of not really knowing what the other side actually looks and feels like. Advice seems to vary massively (as perhaps one should expect!) both on this forum and from colleagues which reiterates there really being no one right answer and makes that decision even more challenging. Many thanks to everyone regardless, it's obviously a huge decision and I'm grateful to be starting to be at least a little more informed.
