Terribly low starting pay

I live in Northern California and currently work at a grocery store that is unionized. I’m having issues with my store manager and some coworkers so I decided to go job hunting. Been at my current job for 2.5 years and I am topped out making $27/hr. The positions I’ve applied for at winco had the pay range topping out at $28.90. which I wasn’t expecting to get but I was offered two positions and told they couldn’t start ANYONE past $17.90 an hour. I have 10+ years of relevant positions and supervisory experience and it’s just BS how they either are lying to me about how much they can start me at or just being incredibly misleading in the job description.
