    Treat them like essential assets, your company can’t function without them. Every time they make you extra money, pay them extra money on top of a salary that makes all their peers in other companies jealous.

      I worked for a company that had its “best year ever” and brought in $220m. They said they were on track to beat $300m next year. I was offered a promotion, but turned it down because 2.8% wasn’t enough to take a manager role. They got offended and fired me.

        Yeah, that kind of thing is what fuels a Union. Then the same people who treated you that way can’t figure out how their perfect company ended up unionized.
