They knew what the pay was when they (myself included) came to PSA. I deal in real estate, and I've both bought and sold successful businesses. I know a thing or two about contracts and negotiations. The fact that the company released that email before the union had a chance to come to the pilot group with something concrete (like a finalized deal) is indicative of subversive politics in and of itself. They are trying to be divisive and get away with attracting new hires as cheap as they possibly can. They know that a lot of FOs will vote for the bonuses with or without the CAs being included. And they know that by releasing that email, timed with the announcement by Envoy, will leave a lot of pilots at PSA salivating for that money (as evidenced by some of the replies here). Don't play into their hand. We have a union because they represent a UNIFIED pilot group. Not just the FOs or just the CAs. I support a bonus. But I support a bonus for all.
