Very.... We switched over to the Fraternal Order of Police last year. Just started our first official FOP contract and got a 10% raise. We were PBA for many many years, when they switched over to the sheriff's office, we got neglected. Went from #2 in the county in pay all the way to #18. Now in one contract we're back to #2 in starting pay.
We no longer have to ask PBSO union people about our city contract or beg them to make changes. We run our own union now.
Best thing we ever did.
I hear with the new contract, new hires with prior experience get a bump in starting pay. Do you know what amount of increase they get on top of regular starting pay? Is it a set percentage per year of experience?
