That's not typically what they're referring to when merger policy mentions "career expectations".
Mergers are disruptive, no matter who you are. Some more than others, but fences have typically been applied to different size of aircraft, not bases. But heh, everything is negotiable, and if the union really values some fences, I'm sure the company would be willing to sell them some.
