helpful ways to improve poor glassdoor ratings 💡

1. recognize the supermajority of employees that want a union
2. don’t break labor law and lay off half of the company in retaliation by forcing people to relocate or quit
3. treat workers with respect 👍

So staff chose to , and company leaders enforced as *retaliation*. Company leaders know sucks, and they are using it punitively.

They started enforcing of two days a week, and HALF THEIR STAFF RESIGNED.

The response of the CEO is hilarious. “The team will be smaller than where we were before and where we want to be…So that’ll obviously impact margin in a positive way in the near term.”

That’s like saying “The bad news is I lost my entire left leg. The good news is that I finally got my weight under 160 pounds.”

“Grindr loses nearly half its staff to strict return-to-work rule”

After an entire 23 year career of getting 0-2% raises in our union contract intermittently... to now be seeing 15%, 20%, 30% raises being demanded, and received for the term of the contract is: a little terrifying honestly. My union is currently in negotiations with the Employer/BCGov. I have no idea what to expect. I dare not hope for anything. But I do. Thank god for Unions and Collective Bargaining.

Why Does Stall Negotiations? Because It Can.
Weak labor laws allow the giant to avoid contract talks. In an attempt to undermine union efforts in Buffalo, New York, says they violated hundreds of times. “They are the worst in history, and we will continue to pursue all legal challenges,” said spokesperson Melissa Palominos. “In the meantime Starbucks workers continue to successfully their stores.”

Since it's Labor Day, it's the perfect time to highlight how unions have fundamentally shaped the modern .

Here are just five monumental changes we owe to advocacy:

1.
2. 40-hr weeks
3. , ensuring safer working conditions.
4. Benefits like health ins, retirement pensions, and unemployment support.
5. laws. (It's startling to realize we needed to prevent from exploiting children.)

What if, in 2024 and every year hence, all workers across the US (who are able to) simultaneously take personal time off on May 1st, to show with the workers of the world?

Today is Labor Day for our American colleagues, and it's a perfect occasion to discuss reasons for unionization.

Some facts:
Workers' productivity has steadily grown in the past 45 years, yet their pay hasn't kept up with this increase. The workers generate more profits each year, but these profits do not return to workers proportionally to their productivity levels.
