Can not speak for everyone.. But I think industry average is a minimum IMO... I don't necessarily expect to be the highest paid in the industry but definitely don't expect to be anywhere near the bottom either...

Time frame? Depends on some factors.. Have to take a look at how much leverage we have. Is there anything the company needs from us to fast track negotiations? ( I don't see much, we already gave them NEO rates below what they should have started at)

Will retro be involved? I certainly expect it to be.... That may help speed things up..
