I currently work for a state entity. This entity merged five private companies into a state agency, and took over all obligations. In our offer letters it stated "you will not be treated any differently than any other agency employee". Well that is not what happen, all other agency employees made a lot more in salary than the privates, but that's not the instant issue. More importantly there were all different pension plans within the agency, but the common denominator of every plan existing in the agency, was they were all Final Average Salary pensions, in which your pension is based on your three highest years of salery. Unlike the new private employees brought in, whereas there pension, is a straight $ amount times years of service pension, This plan was carried over from the previous private co, and now owned by the state agency. Does anyone believe we are being "Treated differently than all the other non-represented agency employees?
