This is a big move on their part. If it’s successful for them, it could inspire a lot of others. I’m curious what their reason for unionizing is. Wanting more reasonable hours, perhaps?
- moomin 8y agoDon’t get me wrong, I’m 100% supportive of unionising for better conditions, but the thing I keep hearing from tech companies is that people want to unionise to have a voice in the ethical practices of their firms. I wouldn’t be surprised if this was as much about that as working conditions.

We care about preserving what’s great about Kickstarter and improving what isn’t.”
