I honestly don't understand why tech workers want unions.
We're extremely well compensated and are dictating changes like forever WFH. We have generous vacation, perks, 401k contribution, ...
I want to get promoted because I work hard, not because of seniority. I want to be able to switch jobs or positions and not have to start at the bottom of the ladder.
Why would we want this?
Edit:
Unions will put pressure on the United States' ability to compete with Europe and other nations. Labor will be less flexible, and it's likely that top talent will be paid much less. Costs, however, will increase and the entire US tech industry will suffer.
We'll switch from nimble meritocracy to a regulated and calcified follower. The rest of the world will catch up. I don't get how that's good for the US.
Also, seeing all of the Europeans in here commenting about an American issue is odd.
