In my opinion, management is always to blame for the failure of a company. They're the one that makes the decision to sign a labor agreement in the first place. If you can't afford the union agreement, don't sign it.
If International Bakeries changed its name to Hostess, which company wolfed down the original Hostess company?
Usually, Intl. Bakeries would have been the holding company. They just took the name of their best subsidiary, Hostess. ...I'm guessing, don't hold me to it.
Pictures! Snoballs are much better than Twinkies. Unless they changed them since I last ate them in about 1972. They wouldn't dare. http://www.mentalfloss.com/blogs/archives/152059
Hostess workers make so little that they consider their jobs replaceable. There have been no raises for years. All those years of payroll deductions to get a pension were wiped out in one contract. The company demanded and got an end to pensions, without repaying workers for accumulated payroll deductions. http://www.indystar.com/article/201...ting-job-loss?odyssey=obinsite&nclick_check=1
As a counterpoint, if management doen't give in, the union will strike. That, in and of itself (as we have seen here) can cripple a business.
Then you need to let them strike. You simply rebuild your business in a right to work state. Management didn't want a fight and they misjudged their competitive advantage as well as their cost structure.

The idea that a person with a college degree is somehoe entitiled to better wages than someone who has worked at a company for a long time and given their life blood to that company is why unions should be in place.
education comes in handy sometimes, i mean without college degrees who is gonna do open mic on slam poetry night down at the wheat grass juice bar?
what is so shocking about this? Hell, if I thought that I was going to have to BK a company, future income in doubt, I would arange to pull as much money out as fast as I could.
If I was going to close the door, I would get what I could, If it is "my" company that is going away, I have that right
right, if you ran a company into the ground as a ceo, you would give yourself a large bonus good stuff
