Thats the beauty of being in a high demand line of work? I struggle to see how being a swe could leave you with no voice. You have mobility and are highly paid. If your company isn’t doing well go find a new job?
I totally understand why people want unions for lower demand work. But I don’t understand it for sw.
That’s all true for game dev but not the rest of tech. If you know that something is wrong you flee before it actually goes bad. Also you can interview for new jobs before you leave the previous one so you don’t have an insurance issue.
Tech workers aren’t above working class concerns. But I’m sick of having to fight the rest of the working class to make any change. I’ll help, but I’m not going to put in a ton of effort for something to help others when those others are hell bent on not receiving that help.
