Agreed, that's why I ask. Industrial and administrative unions do usually seek legibility in payscales. What would the h unions demand?

I'm trying to see past the nonspecific of "unions" to a specific union movement and what it could want (other than the union itself).

No anti-compete agreements.

Access to highly-skilled negotiators for your next review/salary negotiation.

No "crunch time", or at least limit it and require reasonable levels of overtime for it.

Protection for various kinds of paid leave.

Protection from being fired for political reasons—and, more generally, access to highly-competent employment lawyers in the case of legal conflicts between you and the company.

That's just off the top of my head.
