"Second year pay on is what the IPA can negotiate, first year pay is what UPS thinks you're worth."
Knowing at least some of the dinosaurs with that mindset have ridden into the sunset, I sincerely hope both parties use an eventual future TA to remedy our abysmal first-year pay.

Many moons ago, pre-2006 contract, I personally witnessed and heard a UPS manager say almost exactly that.

A pay for training scheme.
It also dissuades people with low relative interest in ups from coming here, camping out until their higher level choices become available.
And as someone pointed out earlier - supply/demand factors allow it.

Unfortunately they have little reason to change it. It saves a few bucks and keeps people away that are already eyeing other airlines. As long as they can keep filling classes I doubt it increases much. We just don’t hire at the scale of bigger airlines.
