A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

It is soo good. A tech company i just got offer from. In their onboarding app, they let me join the union on the first day.

This is what you see in the company with strong union.

So weird that a union is such a weird taboo and looked down upon by employers in the US.

No it's not. Greed rules and corporate greed is king.

You don't get it. I mean it is very weird from an outside perspective that this is normalized.

I’d say we have a general problem in the US with certain people and legal entities constantly acting in bad faith but still having their words taken seriously.

I’m sure it’s a human issue across the globe, but we seem to be especially bad about it when it comes to rich people and corporations.
