Unionizing won't change anything. IBM had a union till a few years ago and it changed nothing. Despite the existence of the Union, the entire chip division was let go.
Pointless activity. The union won't be authorized to negotiate on the member's behalf.
Google and other Silicon Valley company employees tend to be self-centered and entitled. Think they should dictate company policy and who to do business with. Don't like what the company is doing? Give up the $$ and perks and find another job.
Google contract workers do not have the benefits or compensation... this is about exploiting contractors
Google has some of the most generous benefits and compensation in the technology industry. It also has some very arrogant, entitled employees. Unionizing is completely nuts.
