My business just had two meeting recently, one was about "the seriousness of unionization", and the second was regarding a potential shift change because they are unable to fill 20+ positions and people keep leaving.
I would like to preface the seriousness of this with some historical facts about the business: they on average used to pay $12-$15 over competitors (now equal to or even less than), they used to offer pensions (Not any more), they used to have a call list of over 200 applicants (for decades) of whom they could call up and offer a job and those people would quit and jump on board (they can't hire from anywhere in the country or Puerto Rico with relocation bonuses included). And the average length of a workers term was 28 years (now just under 5).
It’s Lowe’s isn’t it
Very much not Lowes's, though I doubt people would travel 1-2 states over to work at Lowe's
Walking from one end of Lowe’s to the other is like going to a different state to take a 15 minute break
Sounds like it's time to unionize!
NGL, seems like its getting close! Probably spring of 2025 is gonna be the make or break for this place
