UAW President Throws Stellantis Contact Proposal In Trash Can

In the ongoing negotiations between the United Auto Workers (UAW) union and Stellantis, UAW President Shawn Fain publicly expressed his frustration with the automaker’s contract proposals. Fain’s fiery response came in an online chat where he visibly discarded the Stellantis proposals into a trash can, citing numerous concessions that the company seeks in labor talks. … (read full article...)

It comes as no surprise to me honestly. I'm just happy someone stood up to it. The problem truly is that corporations don't really care about their employees, or honestly anyone outside of the CEO circle. I don't know all about the European side of the company, but I'm quite sure those on the Mopar side of things (Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram) could do alot better for their employees. Fixing problems the Mopar brand has starts in house. People need to want to come to work and work in an environment that makes them feel valued and also offers a work/life balance & great benefits. A lot of people who work for companies usual want to stay until they retire and would like to be taken care of when they retire. Employees need to be taken care of all the way around

This is a nonsensical post.
Stellantis and Toyota pay all in low-high$50 per hour in the U.S.
If they can't make it on that, then they need to re-think there living.
Complaining about COLA,Pension,hours are all absurd instead of product to fill capacity.
John Elkann will walk out on the UAW talks, and it cause plant closures of Warren & Belvidere.

The problem is that the entry-level workers coming into the Detroit plants make about $15/hr, per the last contract. However, many of those employees have left to get other easier jobs (for example, most McDonald's in the area are hiring for $16/hr) and do not have to work as hard. But since COVID, the plants have had HUGE attendance problems due to the lack of younger employees. Some of which the unions have protected. However, they do need to be competitive in wages for entry-level workers. After reaching record numbers in 2023, with less production, I believe the union should stick up for fundamentals like keeping the plants full of product and competitive wages and benefits. However, there are pros and cons on both sides. I understand both sides, but the last two negotiations were run by corrupt people on both sides. The biggest issue is that it will affect the plants and the thousands of suppliers.

The same UAW that demanded the jobs back for Chrysler workers smoking pot and drinking liquor on the job. UAW, Clean house and change your ways if you want your words to mean anything to us.

Look at who Michigan has voted for over the years, both national and state. You put the noose around your own neck with Democrats and RINOs.
 
Word on the street is this is going to be long one, buckle up.... those complaining about rising inventory numbers don't understand the industry is about to shut down.
