Sounds like the AWU members need to unionize and form an AWU Members Union to make their voices heard within AWU.
Sarcasm aside, this really is a bad look for a group that needs some non-controversial wins to gain support, rather than focusing on just “gaining turf” as quoted in the article. I get the impression CWA is trying to use this to get a foothold in big tech at all costs, AWU members be damned. Maybe they can call it growth hacking.
