I've also been thinking about this lately! I'm not sure I think some of these goals (e.g. certification) would be best handled by a union, but I think there's a lot of room for collective bargaining over benefits and working conditions. There doesn't need to be a massive national union for you to band together with your coworkers and ask for a specific change.

I wrote a little recap piece on a recent action Wayfair employees took. This was in regards to a social issue, but I think the same type of process would work well for other types of requests. dev.to/vcarl/how-a-walkout-happens...
