Well done returnofaking !
Whatever profession is chosen there are always pitfalls and pluses.
I hope you're return can help EZY mgt towards a more open culture that values experience and old school airmanship that has in large part been lost since you left in 2008 when they pursued the cadet/ flexi and now MPL only recruitment.
Contrary to what has been reported very few experienced pilots have been recruited over the past 6 years from ex military/turboprop/GA/non 500h on type Airbus communities.
All the best!
