The tools union workers have today are broken

🔍

Indeed buries you

General job boards don't understand union comp structures. Your $72/hr pipefitting job shows up next to a $18/hr warehouse gig.

📊

Pay scales show wages, not jobs

UnionPayScales tells you what Local 286 pays. It doesn't tell you Local 286 has 14 openings right now with $95/day per diem.

📱

Hiring halls are stuck in 2005

Most union job boards look like they were built on Geocities. No mobile, no search, no alerts. You find out about jobs from word of mouth.

💰

Nobody shows total comp

A $35/hr job with $20/hr benefits and $100/day per diem beats a $45/hr job with basic benefits. But no tool shows you that comparison.
