I'm glad you came to the realization that we need unions. We're also overmanaged because the actual managers e.g. the C suite thinks we need to be watched over.

- baron816 3y agoYou think unions would solve this problem? Adding unions would just insert a whole other parallel management team that'll tell you what you can and can't do. They're not going to simplify anything.
- WarOnPrivacy 3y agoUnions insert a potential for improvement because they come with critically different motivation. Workplaces suffer from compulsions by MBAs, who prioritize shareholders and exec bonuses above the welfare of employees/consumers/company. A union has an ability to raise the priority of employees in this equation - and ease MBA pressures to exploit consumers and degrade the company. But because unions are groups of people, they are subject to the same corrupting principle that afflicts every group of people. Nobody, anywhere wants to clean their own house. A union can be a force for good, as long as it's leaders+members continue to fix the internals that need fixing.
