Oh my, guess all that “not” union busting mess is backfiring on them big time.

Did they try to deny the obvious union busting?
Show threadlathNov 6
Yeah. Said the fired workers were sharing company secrets on discord instead of having union chats.
Show threadFreeAZNov 6
The company secret being they would fire anyone who tried to form a union.

We’ll see what comes out because firing people for trying to form a union is extremely illegal here and could lead to every fired employee getting a year’s pay in one go

That’s literally what happened, the remaining devs are revolting.
Show threadClockworkOtterNov 7
Where is it reported that the remaining staff are revolting?
Show threadTachyonTeleNov 7
I can’t find anything in the Bloomberg articles that say that either.
Show threadSalNov 7
I think a R* said that anonymously but I’m not sure :|

Remaining developers have begun openly protesting the company.

I don’t see mention of remaining developers protesting, only IWGB and the reading of statements.

They lost more money delaying than if they had allowed everyone to unionize. Pathetic.

Suits when they have to choose between doing mustache-twirling villainy that will cost them even more money instead of just letting it be:

YES, TIME TO BE EVIL! THOSE PEASANTS WILL NEVER CATCH ME!!

Allowing the working class to never have any kind of power is the highest priority of the ultra wealthy. That’s the only real threat to their own position and gravy train.
