I just heard about this huge pay increase for hotel workers in NYC. Making over $100k is incredible. The drawback, I think, is that it's because of being unionized. How do you feel about it... would it be worth the pay raise to be part of a union?

Complaint from team members during first month. As the title says, I have recieved a complaint from an older woman I work with, regarding me not knowing how to do many of the tasks I have been assigned and not contributing enough. She has been working with the company for multiple years, this is my very first job and it's not even been 2 weeks. She has zero interest in engaging in a simple conversation nor showing me how to improve. Just complain. I'm considering bringing up to Management.
At my store, regular employees are docked by the minute, but a system error lets new hires get a flat 8 hours of pay without clocking in. They get paid for a full shift even when they leave early or start late. It’s killing morale for the rest of us. Is this worth bringing up to management, or should I just keep my mouth shut?
I'm being asked to relocate for a promotion opportunity, and the company is offering a relocation package, but it feels light for what the move actually costs. I want to push back, but I also don't want to seem like I'm nickel-and-diming when they just offered me a step up. How do you negotiate relocation without killing the goodwill?
I think a lot of hospitality workers would gladly pay union dues if it meant consistent raises and better job security. This industry can feel unpredictable otherwise.
Let me answer your question with a question….what do you see being the downside of being part of a union ?
Agree. I think this is a huge win for the workers.
Unionizing is the way to go!
