        Edit: cause some jackass is implying I’m a bot - I should have joined a union and a union would’ve protected me from the mass layoff in '23 but that doesn’t change that while there I never thought about needing a union because it was such a nice place otherwise.

        As someone who previously worked at Google - they didn’t have any antiunion propaganda.

        They just, like, paid well, had top tier benefits, great perks, and had a good work life balance.

        Silicon valley is full of H1B visa holders who can’t speak up politically or risk deportation.

          This makes a lot of sense. I can definitely see those companies at the bottom having way more H1B workers than the ones st the top.

          The only workers left at 𝕏itter are H1B ones just trying to survive.
