The only companies I've worked for in Sweden have been tech companies, and union membership was very common. At EA we had a collective agreement, along with some other larger games companies here iirc. Many people are members but don't mention it unless it gets specifically brought up since it's such a non-event. Edit: Was curious to find some numbers about this. I don't read Swedish fluently yet so having to use Google Translate, but one report I found from 2020 says that "Information and communication" (which I suspect IT/software engineering might fall into) has 69% membership [0]. It seems to say white collar workers actually have a higher membership rate than others at >70% overall; will look some more and add any other numbers I can find.
