That's the other option, of course: If your employees are happy, they don't need to form a union to press complaints.

That's my situation at a Silicon Valley tech company. Nobody ever mentioned unions one way or another but I honestly have no idea what I could ask for that I don't already get. We have good benefits, good perks, everyone works frok home, unlimited PTO that nobody tries to limit or work around (all we are asked for is to give a rough estimate of time we'll be taking off during each quarter so that it can be factored into planning), good work environment, good pay.
