For all the people who ridiculed the idea of Collective Bargaining for Software Engineers so that they could have a decade of increased salary, here you go. FANNG engineers had the most leverage, they had the numbers, they still would have had enormous salaries regardless, and they gave it up.
Good luck obtaining the same amount of leverage you would've had in the 2010s ever again. Good luck trying to steer the direction of these companies ever again. Good luck trying to establish a baseline for morality and conduct ever again.

- SpicyLemonZest 2y agoI can't speak for all the downvotes, but I just don't understand what the comment had to do with the article it's supposedly commenting on. The article describes Google's weekly meeting where executives answer adversarial questions from employees, in which employees expressed that they're concerned about future layoffs. What part of that story would be different if more of them had joined the union? If the implication is that unionized employees never have to worry about layoffs, that's not accurate.
