I can see unions being useful in some situations, however in my opinion the worse part of a typical job, is the fact that you work for someone else. No matter how nice your boss, you still have to follow orders. Joining a union is just duplicating this dynamic, because now you have to also follow union rules. I can see in many cases that this is worth it because the type of job has extremely low mobility. However for any position that has market options, joining a union seems pointless as your bargaining rights are simply leaving and joining another company because you can (and any successful company would recognize successful employees, thereby giving you bargaining rights via the market).
