Their union seems to be more social justice focused than I'd be interested in joining, e.g. "achieve just outcomes, social and economic justice are paramount".

Their union seems to be more social justice focused than I'd be interested in joining, e.g. "achieve just outcomes, social and economic justice are paramount".
I'd be much more interested in tackling things like non-competes, employee ownership of side projects, better vesting schedules, better direction for the company, salaries, revisiting how many H1B visas there are, etc.
- Rebelgecko 6y agoIMO Google's vesting schedule is one of (if not the) best out there. Basically the opposite of Amazon (who is something like 5-15-35-45)
- ALittleLight 6y agoMy general point is that I'd be up for unionizing to make things better for employees. Not for social justice. Another big one would be moving to a 32 hour work week. I want specific objectives that make life better for employees including me (although I don't work at Google, I mean hypothetically, if I did). I don't want generic platitudes.
