The article stated the source of that quote:
"Carl Guardino, chief executive of the Silicon Valley Leadership Group, which represents most of the region’s large tech companies"
When I worked for actual worker's rights, in another lifetime, whenever a PR firm hired out journalists to write a hit piece on our organization they would write articles of this quality. Selectively choosing interviewees to meet a predefined viewpoint, skipping over flashpoint words, presenting only one viewpoint without analysis, and then as a buried lead, dismiss potential opposition worries as far below the fold as possible.
