Retaliatory firing for unionization efforts is a crime and violation of the National Labor Relations Act.
For senior positions in those cities with their cost of living thats not really that much.Not sure unionization was really intended for this type of compensation level
Or, you know, some semblance of job security and stability to support their families.
With how MS has treated their studios lately, can you blame them? I don’t.
That seems about in line with the average salary for Senior level software engineers though, and those are senior level salaries with many years of experience, so I'm not sure what this post is supposed to illustrate. Besthesda has over 400 employees and I doubt they're all senior level engineers with multiple years of experience.Not sure unionization was really intended for this type of compensation level
That incompetence was former MS employee Elop partnering with the struggling ecosystem that was Windows Phone when Nokia still had some brand awareness. Then they got bought and killed by MS. Nokia could have been a good phone company like Samsung if they hadn't squandered their internal Maemo and then swapped it for another struggling OS instead. It was a clear failure to recognise why Maemo didn't take off and that reason was app support.
Yep, there is nothing inherently wrong with Unionizing for worker protection.
Why not form nation wide union and raise min wage to 30 dollars an hour and reduce hours to max 30 a week? It's funny employers are banned from cartels and monopolies are anti trusted but for employees all that's fine and even encouraged.
You do know which forum you are on?
Europe is committing economic self deletion, and it shows. Not the example you might think it sounds like.
Oh, the Europe aka "open air museum" where the tech is coming from USA, resources from the ME and Africa and industrial goods from China
And also not paying for its own military.You'd still struggle to be able to afford a modest single family home on that salary. In most instances without a big deposit, even on that salary you'd get laughed out of the bank.

Why not stop with obviously trolling arguments? You came up with some BS and are pushing it as what? Nobody is asking for that shit.
Hey did you know that all the tech that US companies are responsible for providing the world come from Taiwan. And the things that help the Taiwanese make their chips comes from this European company called ASML. You should check it out.Oh, the Europe aka "open air museum" where the tech is coming from USA, resources from the ME and Africa and industrial goods from China
I suppose you being such highly intelligent individual can then explain how unions in nurses for example are not cartels and not monopolies if they control labor? And for instance California acted as labor union for fast food industry by raising wages to 20 dollars, and already so far lost 10000 jobs? https://www.hoover.org/research/cal...d-jobs-after-20-minimum-wage-signed-last-fall
This is quite false. You have some of the highest end pharmaceuticals, companies like ASML in high end electronics manufacturing, some of the best lens manufacturing in the world (used from electronics to telescopes), heavy machine industry, leading in airplane manufacturing, very healthy car manufacturing and a lot more.Oh, the Europe aka "open air museum" where the tech is coming from USA, resources from the ME and Africa and industrial goods from China
You are mixing up government regulations in a US state (personally I think they were poorly thought out) and acts by workers for protection of their rights.

This is a lazy, absurd parody of a slippery slope argument that seems to argue any collective bargaining might as well be TOTAL collective bargaining. It's like arguing taxes shouldn't exist because "Why don't we just tax everyone 100%?" or that you shouldn't have to brush your teeth because "What am I just going to brush them all day?"
Cartel = teaming up with others to raise prices. Its not rocket science for ffs. But union aim for exactly same things as that min wage increase, so I don't see reason to separate them.
In Bethesda, MD or surrounding areas? Yeah, it’s pretty damn bad as house prices are generally well over $1 mil. Well, in Bethesda itself and surrounding areas more like $2mil.£5400 per month...
Your argument goes out the door when a ton of ultra rich don’t pay jack shit in taxes. And we are talking Musk and Bezos levels even.Households paying no income tax by income level U.S. 2022 | Statista
In total, about 59.9 percent of U.S.
Well over half of American households aren't paying income tax. I promise you, the money is getting "redistributed" well beyond the point of sustenance.
America has a more progressive taxation system beyond the most holy of European grails in Scandinavian countries. This idea that it's the financial badlands is ridiculous.
Unions for white collar, high skilled labor are a joke for a reason.
Ultimately, the proof will be in the results.
Unionizing will lower the quality of their games?
Wait are people against unionizing, or is this because its an MS studio unionizing that we must see this as a negative?
The issues with Bethesda lie with their management and not with the regular devs. Some of these issues have been well documented over the years.
Then present arguments with at least a modicum of thought. Your discussion points were nonsense.
He did not pay any income taxes for many years which was your argument.
The top 1% pay 40% of income tax dollars.
