This is about the worst take I've seen recently.
Blames the workers for not leaving sooner, for not seeing it coming, for not unionizing, for making a decent living.
So you blame the victims of corporate greed instead of the corporations themselves.
Maybe you should consider keeping your opinions to yourself?
Bungie has show themselves to be a good employer for a decade or more. You can't blame workers because the company was sold to Sony and now are being mistreated.
Corporate greed can only be stopped by disallowing the divide and conquer strategy they employ. Individual bargening against large corporations only works if the employer works in good faith. So when the relationship was good they could have also formed a union and work together to have a fair footing if anything changes in that good relationship. The employees as a group missed that window and now that it's needed the framework for collective bargaining is not there and individuals are left holding the bag.
Unions should not be demonized as a bad thing or punishment for the employer, it is a counterweight to the corporate machine if it ever shows it's ugly head. Good employers have nothing to fear if they work together.
