Even the QA tester in can make over 100k a year with intro roles at 70k... so yea; They're doing alright on that end.

It seems like they want to 'be heard' more and 'have a seat at the table' with management more than anything related to pay or abuse of any kind, which is just as understandable IMO.

>We want management to respect our ideas and our commitment to improving our company and our industry. A union gives us a seat at the table and will help us create the conditions that will allow us to build careers here and not hop from job to job hoping that things will be better at the next place. Nothing will get better unless we work together to make it better.”

Though TBH I'm sure it happens in many other, if not all other industries as well. The frequency in which it happens however, would vary quite a bit.
