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.

    Huh, hadn’t seen that before. But does that necessarily mean it is a strong union? Couldn’t it also mean it’s an employer-controlled union that is not really going to do anything for you?

      It’s more likely there not because the employer wanted it, but because the union demanded it.

      You’ve got a point. This can be a sign of something sinister. It’s not necessarily a bad a sign but the situation that the previous user pointed out happens frequently enough that it could be.

        No not really, if you read more about unions you will see that they aren’t always working in their members’ best interests and sometimes union leadership will ally with employers to secure their futures above those of union members. Not all unions are created equal. From what little I know and have read in the past about unions. Not that I have first hand experience.
