The FIFO list and monthly calendar transparency.
No credit for Field standby.
Anything having to do with CCS. Hard to believe that Unimatic was more functional.
The need to verify trips domestically (saved from doing this thanks to FAR117, but it's still in the contract, 5-E-2-a)
Getting paid correctly. The whole concept of having a "file a pay claim" process just validates that payroll is messed up.
Non LCA Captains flying as F/O.
The Reassignment sections, 20-I, up to and including Forced Junior manning (In the contract, not implemented yet due to lack of IT capability). So convoluted and again lacks transparency for the line pilot to ensure its been followed correctly.
Just a few I can think of for the UAL side. C2012, to be fair, also brought improvements to both sides in some of those same sections.

Almost everything you didn't like, is not a concession, but the compromise between two legacy cultures, rolled into one joint contract.
LUAL got more pay.
LCAL got more work rules, and QOL.
Overall, not ideal, but far from anything I would call concessionary. Calling it concessionary means we went backwards.
