Unionize

I strongly believe that Paramount needs to unionize. This entire situation would not be happening if we had a union. Layoffs every 6 months are abominable, and we deserve more stability in the workplace. Thoughts?

Layoffs happen with or without a union. It's parameters laid out in a contract that would control the terms of how much compensation would be afforded to each person let go and so forth. In addition, although general working conditions and pay might increase for employees retained, it might also exacerbate dismissals due to the company's bottom line.
