Should it matter? Why is it bad if you're the one on the receiving end but ok if it's just a new guy? This provision stinks and we shouldn't throw future employees under the bus.

Looks like we traded 4 weeks of hotels for an extra year of new hire seat freeze. Who do you think won that battle? The hotels are an industry embarrassment, they were coming anyway. Why trade for something we were going to get anyway? As a guy with a SSN last 4 that starts with a 0 I think the proposed 2 year seat lock stinks. Because of some random factor of where I was born, I have to eat whatever nobody else in my new hire class wanted for 2 years?
