I think this will be a big part of what management has already planned in our first TA. There will be no back pay. Soon T-Rowe price will be replaced as our 401k planning and Empower Financial will take over. Once again likely massive cost savings for the company which will off-set the company provided/Alpa negotiated increased % of contribution to our 401k retirement plan.
The term of the decade? "Cost Nuetrality"
Is this a horribly negative thing for the pilot group? Nope. We all have jobs and it could be better, but it could be worse.
BTW, the first TA that we vote on is a guaranteed YES/PASS.

I think that management believes as you do, which is why I expect a substandard TA. Unlike you I feel like most guys have had it and it'll go down in flames. Informational picketing, strike vote and probable strike before we get what we deserve. There are blue juicers, but there aren't as many as people think.
