Pros
There are no pros in being a member of this union (political organization). They cannot even represent you in workplace disputes.
Cons
Local 2015 is incompetent and corrupt. We make less than fast food workers. Next door in Ventura County, their union got them $1.65/hr more than Local 2015 got LA County caregivers.Local 2015 collected 93.5 million in dues in 2022. 33.2 million of that went to their HQ in Washington DC. to support it's massive political and social agenda. 3.7 million was spent on politics and lobbying. 1.8 million was given to ideological organizations. 1.9 million was spent on airfare,hotels and travel, including $400,000 spent at a luxury Hilton Hotel in San Jose. 1.6 million was spent on private lawyers an consultants.$371,000 was spent on catering. 77 of their 398 union officers were paid 6 figures, including $248,000 for Arnulfo De La Cruz. They also accumulated 116 million in spare cash. What's missing here? Members dues being spent on members... That's what. They are a far left political slush fund pretending to be a labor union. When you try to opt out, they pull every dirty trick in the book to keep charging you dues. When I opted out, they informed me I would have to continue paying dues and political contributions for another year.
