Did they explicitly go after the unionized staff?
Or do they mean they fired people, and a subset of them also recently unionized?
- bruh2 3y agoIf I'm not mistaken, it's always the second option – it's illegal to fire someone for unionizing in most places
- micromacrofoot 3y agoThey fired 50% of the staff, which included 60% of the union (including the entire union bargaining team that was pushing for Songtradr recognition). The union filed a complaint with the National Labor Relations Board.

- micromacrofoot 3y agoDo you have a source for this?
