I don't think it's unreasonable to consider the majority of junior people would consider voting in favor of 10% for a short-term gain while they wait for a class date at a legacy, essentially, short-changing the guys more senior. I would like to believe MM will not consider presenting the pilot group a grossly imbalanced TA. Another consideration is allegedly there are several hundred PRIA requests in the queue for those with a CJO, who in theory have nothing to lose and all to gain by agreeing to 10%. While I acknowledge management is offering "raises", it appears they are throwing quite a bit of pork fat in their proposal to the detriment of those who have invested 6+ years at F9.

What is the downside of agreeing to an immediate 10% with snap-up to respectable pay rates, including retro once F9 achieves mutually agreed upon financial positions within a defined period of time?
