Do you have a link by any chance? Or is this a rumor?
Here's the link to part 1 of 6 parts.
http://ww2.cfo.com/credit/2015/02/anatomy-turnaround-yrc-worldwide/
Here's the paragraph in question:
“If we operate in a largely non-unionized industry, we need to be able to pay in a mainly non-unionized fashion,” says Pierson. “If we’re above the market by 15% we’re not going to be competitive. We are now paying what the market will bear, and we all need to divorce ourselves from the mindset that that 15% is going to come back.”

Not what one would consider to be good bedside manner.

this kind of public insult should be cause for a walkout....
All this man has done is told the Uncut Truth. I know its hard to accept the reality of it but the company has already DIVORCED itself from the 15% thought and the Pension Saving Initiatives so with that being said. I suggest the rank and file take heed to that message or do whatever you feel you must do to in your mind improve your situation. There will be NO MIRACLE SNAPBACK. Unions are on the decline in America and the trend seems to be that large corporations are making sure it stays that way with side deals with YOUR CONGRESSMEN. Sad part is the hope in which was sold to the rank and file that this was just a temporary situation that could be corrected through hard work and sacrifice,,,,,,,
What a Lube & Tube Job.....!
You never will see that 15% at this place! Never! I'm thinking that come early next year they will be back for more.

I remember being told or reading that this was aligning our pay package with the non Union competition. So Pierson isn't saying anything new. Next time you are put up against this Read everything and ask Questions . Don't just stand there like a fool and listen to everybody rant about it. Then say what did he say? When the big shots are standing there selling you the crap.

UH ABF already started giving it back. Got 2% last july another 2% this July makes us 3% this year?
Less debt than YRCW. More of YRCW operating ratio goes to debt service than abf or upsf
That is true. But the 7% cut you took, if you figure in from the time it hit to now, as opposed to if it never happened, you will not be made whole for that time. Like the bonus they are paying YRC, or the Bonus in 1994, you give up more in compounded raises.
