Unions would be terrible for tech workers, because of the high variance in output between individuals.
Your best workers would be underpaid and leave, your worst overpaid and stay.

- xyst 2y agoGood ‘ole “your best talent leaves and worst talent stays” anti-union/union busting propaganda. Have heard this many times over the years yet have not seen any data confirming this. Plays on your emotions but besides fear it doesn’t have any legs to stand on.
- scarab92 2y agoUnions standardise wages. That’s not much of a problem in most low skill roles where employee productivity exists in a narrow band, but it will never be tolerated by high skill workers. It’s not just unions, you also see this effect when employers use pay guides to limit wages. The best employees leave because they are no longer being paid in proportion to their value.
