#2One day, perhaps Googlers will reinvent unions and discover what it’s like to have actual negotiating power with your employer. Until then, expect stuff like this to keep happening.

Unions never take root at tech companies because software engineers seem themselves not as an exploited proletariat but as temporarily embarrassed 10x programmers.

Most of the times, the market is in the favour of developers because every company is looking for more developers all the time. It's only in specific cities, and specific companies, that developers don't have the upper hand. This lead to a culture of developers having no idea how unions work or even considering them because they got well paying jobs the moment they left college.

#7I hate this ongoing PR attack on Google now being joined by politically ambitious state AG's. Google has done more positive things than any other company over the last twenty years. Instead of targeting bad companies that destroy people's lives (think gambling or alcohol or junk food), they are trying to destroy the company that gave us free search, maps, and email.
