a Union is about rights, they _should_ provide an extra safety net should your employer put you in a bad position. It means that its much harder to divide and conquer employees
A moderately well run union is useful for the employer as a way to consult, defuse and get sentiment for changes.
Unions have nothing to do with employability, its about making the conditions better for the workers, and not because that's what other companies do.
Employees leaving doesn't mean the place changes, especially if there is a limitless supply of keen, naive and cheap labour out there. The VFX industry is a prime example of this.
