Here's a recent HN discussion about unions: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19433610

You can read the thread and draw your own conclusions. My impression is taken from reading a number of these threads over years; I could be wrong!

My guess is that that sentiment arises from the meritocratic attitude that if you are disproportionately talented you should be compensated much much more. And I get that. To a point.

I don't like when corporations collude to artificially suppress wages either. Or when information asymmetry is used to keep an engineer's salary low or prevent negotiating higher salaries.

I'll read that discussion.
