Maybe unions (which are large monolithic organizations covering many employers) are not what I'm looking for.
It just seems that more startup engineering teams should engage in collective action, because in many cases, if the entire team left, the company would be crippled.
- bgilroy26 11y agoThe continued success of professional sports players unions supports this idea.

Like say in a company, you work with your direct coworkers (as opposed to members of a national or even regional union) to adhere to that protocol of bargaining when disputes with management happen?
