In addition, Jim Graham should have lost his job or at least faced some sort of disciplinary action. But no.

In October 2020, Graham was promoted to CEO of Endeavor, Delta’s regional carrier subsidiary and senior vice president of Delta Connection, the airline’s partnership with regional carriers Skywest and Republic Airways.

No disrespect intended to the pilots, but it doesn't seem that Delta has learned any constructive lesson from this.
Has there been a shift in the culture at all? I don't know that I will ever feel safe about flying with Delta again.
