UAW wins 25% salary increase at GM Ultium plant

[Bronco574]

GM increased salaries by 25 % at its Ohio ultium battery plant! A big win for the UAW! The UAW is asking for an across the board 40% increase in salaries for members in current contract negotiations. Saddle up buckaroos !

Wow that is huge. The cost will be passed on down to the consumer.

And result in layoffs. 40%, when was the last time anyone in the real world got a 40% raise?

Base Bronco has gone up nearly $10k already, imagine what it's gonna be in a few more years.

Agree, I bought my 2022 base SAS last October for 43500, just order the 2024 BD with same options 2.7 , lowest trim, for 55,500. FUN -Right!

Yikes. For a niche non value adding plant that’s a massive increase.

wasn't that Ohio plant a JV and they were making $16 an hour and it went to $20? I could be mistaken but it was not at a regular GM plant.

Their requested pay raise is to be spread over 4 years. It's still huge but not as huge as claims imply.

Not sure it’s niche. GM stands to make a ton off their ultium platform.

$20 is not a crazy wage for the conditions. The $16 rate they got paid though was. McDonalds pays more. Then the execs complain there are no qualified candidates to hire all the while giving themselves tens of millions in bonuses.
