1) that document doesn't have technology jobs broken out in it
2) it doesn't talk about the relationship between demand and wage. developers very high in demand tou would be foolish to let a union negotiate your wages
Unions raise the income level and benefits of workers in their industry across the board. Even non-union jobs—if their field has a large enough representation of unionized workers—end up offering higher wages and benefits to compete. It's foolish to claim they would lower wages for devs for some magical reason. Thanks for the chat tho, have a nice day!
unions bring up median salaries but would hurt top performers
Also those links have flawed data as none of those industries have the demand software engineers have. Look up the natural rate of unemployment and compare to our industry.
Also it would make it harder to get into the industry. Good developers would avoid at all costs and it would probably drive up the salaries of non unionized developers. So maybe this is a good thing....by all means start a union :)
