UAW Member for life here. I, and many family, friends, and neighbors worked for GM over many years. I support the Union and their challenge of keeping (and recovering) the gains made over the last century.
Anyone who has worked for GM knows it's a badly run business. I'm surprised they are still around after all the missteps witnessed over my years spent there.
They have 49000 workers? Heck, when I hired in at The Buick in 1977, there were approximately 18,000 workers at that facility alone. GM's hourly workforce was in the hundreds of thousands.
Those workers didn't disappear because of labor's demands. They went away due to piss poor management. It made me sick how they continually shot themselves in the foot rather than do what was right for the company. So sad to see what GM has become.
