kinda sorta.
I think you are both saying the same thing, but just differently.
Right now we get 15% deposited directly, regardless of what we contribute. Do nothing get 15%.
For those of us who still heavily contribute, It can be a good deal as well. my example is as follows:
15% for being a pilot here.
plus
10% 401k contribution which I was doing to begin with.
I'm saving 25% of my annual income (in theory).
under the old plan, I was saving 10% with a 5% match, with 3% retirement plus. For me, I went from 18% to 25% with no additional money put it.
YMMV

Just wondering if anyone has anything to say about life (implementation schedule aside) post-contract approval. Has the new aggreememt altered your life at B6? Work rules? Pay rates? Tell all...
By the way... Check your pay on Rainmaker. Those fools be cheap’in. Especially you East-Coast redeye types.

I was getting 13% from the company. Now I get 15%. That's 2% more. But, all 15% is now deposited bi- weekly, so that is also an improvement.

I’m guessing you’re trying to leave and haven’t gotten a call from the big 3. Why do you think that is? So while you’re stuck here are you trying to make this a better place by volunteering your own time? There are plenty of committee positions in need of volunteers. Someone as opinionated as yourself might be a good fit. Or do you just come on here and complain and expect others to fix things for you?
