They offered me to start at $24. The contract says $17. He said since I would start at $24, I wouldn't get a raise until the contract caught up. Which was 2 or 3 years. I didn't take the job tho. I've never worked at a union job, so I've only had 401ks. Not sure which is better.

I know the pension was one of the confusing things they were trying to hash out.
They might have to negotiate a TForce pension come contract negotiations. I a GUARANTEE a pension will be in the details when that happens.im not real sure and Buffalonytrucker92 Thank this. -
Pensions are a good thing until the company files for bankruptcy. Don’t think fedex, UPS or any large carrier is too big to fail. No one would of thought Sears holding would be where it’s at today 40 years ago, or that Amazon a book online retail would be giving fedex/ups a run for there money.
tons of Detroit city workers lost there pensions due to the city filing for bankruptcy, and ultimately the employees/former ate it.Texas_hwy_287 and Buffalonytrucker92 Thank this. -
Im a long time employee of OVNT/MC/UPGF/TFORCE, and i dont know what new hires are facing, but there are 3 medical options.
Kaiser, a no pay, and the one i have which is a PPO thats $135 a month and covers all family members. The Pension is still here and taken over By TForce at least untill 2023 when the contract ends. We also have a 401k with TForce no match.
As far as work, its up and down... we are in a transition, and there is a lot of unknown. But we have been down this road a couple times before.
Nothing catastrophic has happend yet in 20+ years that I've experienced yet. Alain Bedard seems to want to work with the teamsters, and also seems excited about finally putting some money into this company. UPS gave up in 2013 in my opinion, and Carol Tome couldn't wait to get rid of us .
I think we are in for some positive changes, and a company we can be proud to retire from.Buffalonytrucker92 Thanks this. -
