There’s no upside for me, and severe downsides.
My reasoning, in particular:
1) My skills are unique and in high demand. I can best maximize my own compensation through direct negotiation.
2) Compensation is effectively zero-sum, and I don’t want to subsidize low performers.
3) I don’t want to subsidize a parallel, mostly useless (and probably entirely useless) shadow management hierarchy in the form of union officials.
