I don't think unions are that into taking on limited partnerships, but I could be misinformed, I'm neither a lawyer nor a union official. The principals own the firm and run it as they see fit. Period, end of story.
If you want better benefits, higher pay, more realistic goals, or training, go find them elsewhere. I think you'll find TP's pay and benefits are on par or better than many competitors. As far as training, if you're not in actuarial, don't expect much at TP.
You choose to work yourself into the ground in hopes that you will become a principal some day, or you are overtime eligible, or you are hoping for a performance related bonus. If none of those apply, you are working yourself to the bone because you're a workaholic. That sounds harsh, but don't mean it to be that way.
Not to be rude, but you'll get paid out your vacation time, and if you have advanced skills they will transfer to another employer if you are so inclined. |

From what several of us have been told here in the office, unions are popular in both private and public companies. We got some information a few weeks ago and have since had some informal Q&A conversations that have generated some interest. Many of us are tired of receiving "harsh" messages (similar to your posting) with very little "good" for us so, any change will be a benefit.
