Union organizers always want GM style unions.

But really developers would be better off with something along the lines of a trade guild. Something that enforces standards on employers and employees.

The Saturn corporation had a labor-management partnership which did exactly that for standards, and was a subdivision of GM. Unfortunately it's stressful for corp and union leadership when high standards are set, so it eventually lost support despite high worker approval.
