| Arguing about which company's name looks better on a resume is an irrelevant distraction that avoids addressing the actual problem: standing up to fight against something may require personal sacrifices. In general, anybody with salary has the opportunity to quit. This is certainly true for most tech jobs. I understand if someone working variable part time[1] hours for minimum wage cannot afford to lose their job. There isn't any room for sacrifices when you already have to e.g. decide each month if you can afford to pay for both food and utilities, or if you aren't going to have hot water for a while[2]. Yet even though they face far higher risks than the average tech worker, sometimes they still choose to make sacrifices[3]. Yes, you might get fired. You might have to adjust your standard of living. Banding together into larger groups can help to mitigate some of these costs, but regardless, the average tech worker is fortunate enough to be able to make a significant sacrifice. [ This is why some of us try to warn about growing problems early, when the cost of counteraction is low. Unfortunately, most people decide to ignore the problem because it isn't an obvious, widespread, damaging problem. ~sigh~ ] [1] different, computer-optimized schedule each week, could be anything that still counts as part time (including 0) [2] https://medium.com/@sarahkendzior/the-minimum-wage-worker-st...
