Some employers have a little flexibility in their contract (I got one of the probably not enforcable in California claims of ownership of work outside the office redlined on a support position).
If you're joining an employer with a negotiated contract, there's really no chance to change it when you're hired; it's accept it or leave. You generally aren't part of the bargaining if you're not a current employee.
Maybe the contract is better, but we'd have to see some to know. Maybe I don't want what the union wants and while I have a vote, it doesn't have significance unless my opinions are shared by others.
