And when REI issued company-wide raises from 2022 to 2024, unionized employees were left out.

One Pair, Double Duty: REI Co-op Sahara Convertible Pants Review
  One crisp morning near Bozeman, I wore the REI Co-op Sahara Convertible Hiking Pants in full-length mode. This was perfect for the cool air and shaded forest.
