$2M Pension (which didn’t fully vest until 20 years)
vs
PBGC money
Age 65, 5 years extra TOP earnings (unless you were hired at 25, this isn’t the same windfall)
Alpa Note,
Alpa Claim $100k+
Alpa’s efforts succeeding to recharacterize the claim money as tax free
9%DC+2% DPSP vs 0%
~4400 shares of merger stock $175k
JCBA, C2012, C2015, C2019 substantial pay raises, further propelling 401k contributions
Pay banding A330 and 765 to A350
GVUL benefiting the TOP the most
MBCBP benefits the TOP the most
401k (unmatched) benefits going to 16%, 17%, 18%
Profit sharing that is pensionable
Social Security that is there for the TOP, questionable for the next generation
All these things disproportionally benefiting the TOP.
