Really curious to know if you gain a different amount of knowledge depending on if you work for a union or private. Does anyone have any input?

No, I think it’s the people you work with and the experiences you have. I don’t think being in the union or not has anything to do with it. There’s idiots everywhere, and there’s incredibly knowledgeable people everywhere.

Union has a pretty consistent training program from what I understand, Private companies vary. I've worked a small company where I got the opportunity to run heavy equipment. I'm with a larger company now with a robust apprenticeship training program and I get into much bigger installs, Heavy equipment is subbed out but the electrical experience is MUCH more in-depth.

Looking for new potential work. I’m not desperate. I have an interview on Friday, if they hire me and I take it, I’m leaving a toxic work environment, very poor management and nosy coworkers for another Union job but I feel better RBI’s new job will have better work relations, room for growth and better management. However, I’ll be leaving 7 years and great work perks. How do I have potential new job to pay me my rate of pay and possibly give me some of my previous work perks.
