Around 100 staffers called out the company on claims of union busting, including allegations of negotiating in bad faith and multiple unfair labor practices.

“Management has said they would rather prepare for a Black Friday without us than agree to our reasonable wage demands. In fact, The New York Times Guild even offered to donate one of their upcoming bargaining sessions to us and we just heard back from management this morning. They refused. We have been bargaining our first contract for two years. That’s an unacceptable amount of time,” she said.

Representing the Times Tech Guild was Kathy Zhang, a member of the analytics team, who claimed that since the Tech Guild was formed in April, “upper management has fought us every step of the way.” That sentiment was shared by Bill Baker, unit chair for the union at the Times Guild, contending that “everywhere I look management is fighting union members at this company.”

In a statement provided to WWD, a spokeswoman for The Times said: “The New York Times has a long history of productive relationships with unions to advance our shared objectives. We’re actively working with The New York Times NewsGuild and the Wirecutter Union to put in place collective bargaining agreements that fairly reward our employees for their work and contributions to The Times’ success, and we look forward to continuing those negotiations at the bargaining table.
