>>Berkshire Hathaway and Brazilian investment firm 3G Capital recognize the company’s new culture might not be “the perfect fit” for longtime Pittsburgh-based employees.<<

Translation: we want workers who will actually work.

My ass. This is ALL about money. Get rid of the high priced employees and bring in new ones for half the cost.

I once had an employee of Heinz in the Pittsburg area share this story.

Now, I don't recall where the plant was, but it was in the Pittsburg area. Seems the unions at the Heinz plant wanted exorbitant perks with their new contract, including a lunch room, covered parking, and other things I don't remember.

Well, Heinz gave the union everything it asked for and then asked if everybody, with the union, was happy with changes and contract. The union was crazy happy about all of the changes they had asked for were given to them. Like I said, the union was happy.

With the union's happiness having been accomplished, and all demands being met, Heinz immediately closed the plant and fired everybody!

Does Teresa Heinz Kerry still have money in Heinz either directly or indirectly through the Heinz Endowment she runs?

Heinz is the best ketchup in my opinion. Nothing even comes close by comparison. Too bad— Theraaazzaa and Lurch latched on to Heinz and now this... ‘let my ketchup go’.
