This sounds like more wishful thinking than reality. Like what SWE roles are there that are union? I graduated right after the dotcom burst, with a Computer Engineering degree, I now work as a SWE, and I don't know a single one of my peers that has entered a union.

It's an observation about what other SWEs are reporting elsewhere in this thread.

I'd be extremely careful about believing what you read in the comment sections of lemmy.
