My coworkers and I were all illegally fired in retaliation for forming a union a few years ago. The federal agency that investigates violations of labor law found the employer to be obviously at fault, and we settled for cash. As part of the federal investigation it came out that the employer had drawn up a list of employees they wanted to keep if at all possible. I was on that short list; but once it became clear I was pro-union, they fired me anyway. Contrast that with the actual union contracts coverings software devs being bargained at places like the New York Times or Kickstarter. I'll take my peers' idea of a fair process over the employer's any day.
