Not being harassed at your workplace should be the norm, not some luxury benefit that you move to a different company for. Pressure for better working condition

Not being harassed at your workplace should be the norm, not some luxury benefit that you move to a different company for. Pressure for better working conditions always comes from workers themselves, rather than management, because the priorities are simply different.
I'm assuming you come from a time where strong unions were still a thing. They were a hard-won victory for workers' rights, and a necessity to improve working conditions. Without them, any complaining employee was simply fired, because it's much cheaper for the organization to fire a few employees than to acquiesce to their demands. The latter is precisely what's happening here.
