    It’s definitely important to know when to quit, but it’s also important to know when to fight. For example, I’m in the tech industry working for a AAA videogame company. I could leave, but I’m in a luxurious position where I don’t get harassed or put in dangerous situations. I also know that the rest of the tech industry is full of the same bullshit. So, I’m choosing to instead fight back and change the status quo.

      Good luck, I hope you succeed. I know that changing jobs in the industry can be a case of out of the frying pan.

      But personally, I have found that organisational culture is really hard to change.

        It sure as hell is, which is why I’m not alone! We will be a huge union in tech when we go public, we’ll also have a ton of bargaining power.

          That’s super cool, I hope it works out and inspires more in the industry to Unionize.

      Fight what? Why would you want to fight a luxurious position where you don’t get harassed?

      Can you refer me for a job. I am a dev manager with a decade of experience. And I’m a Marxist. I lead the change from within. Looking because RTO only benefits shiity managers.
