As United Auto Workers go on strike for fair wages, setting in motion a potentially huge disruption to the economy, their bosses find themselves under increasing pressure to explain why they can’t give what the workers are asking — as General Motors CEO Mary Barra found out Friday."The union is dema…
You have to look at the whole compensation package…
No, I don’t. I can’t feed my family with an EAP program or a 401(k) that will disappear with the next robber baron of Wall st, or a marginally better healthcare. The world still runs on dollars and cents and until we all get our fair share, we need to be coming for these corpo-clowns.
Also anytime a company offers a ‘benefit’, it’s because they’re able to make money off of it somehow. i.e. ‘unlimited PTO’.

She, but yes
That’s what I get for poorly reading the ad-ridden article. Should have just watched the original video posted in the comments.
My apologies for my poor assumption.
Also, notice her insertion of the claim that 92% of her compensation is based on overall performance, as though to suggest that she lives under precarity, just the same as regular workers.
Yet, I feel reluctant to give her any credit for being clever rhetorically. I clearly sense how comprehensively she is apathetic and out of touch.
