alt Hacker NewsI‘ve read this frequently, but I have yet to be convinced. The union presence seems to be more of a correlation than a causation to me.
Larger companies move slower, larger companies also tend to have a stronger union presence than SMBs

I can try convince you. In unionized companies one can’t fire employees from the 53rd birthday. That makes them similar to care home at the end. Young folks come and go and are minority at the end. Dynamics decrease not from the size, but from getting old. Since the salaries are more or less the same the oldtimers have maxed out bonuses. What do young guys get? Basically nothing since the bonus pool must be distributed equally in the company.
I like the concept of the union, but I think that IG Metall is not the good implementation of that. At least not for white collar workers.
