Unions don't inherently prevent you from negotiating your own terms, keep talented people from raising to new levels, or prevent the removal of people who should have been fired long ago. There are some unions that have these problems, yes, but then there are others that don't. The big Hollywood unions (SAG, DGA, WGA, etc.) are examples of the latter.
