Here are some links to previous threads on the subject that might answer your question and then some:

I think the only think all pilots agree on regarding VBs is that they are controversial. I think Dave F. touched on something important, for it to work it has to be seen as a win/win proposition. Under previous management here, I don't think that was possible. With new management repeatedly stating the desire to build trust with employee groups, win/win is no longer inconceivable. DAL's test will be interesting to watch in the meantime.
