A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Net income is a small factor. One should compare the total package because the unions are usually way ahead of the non-union.

My union gives me benefits that are included in my $30/month dues and I’m not even full time.

My company was spread across 3 unions. 1 and 2 got decent healthcare. 3 got a $1000 signing bonus. I hear they like pizza parties.
