That's not incompatible with unionisation. Union employees still have company bosses who will hopefully try to make their working environment better for them. What won't change is the employment contract, as that will be negotiated collectively, but those are typically the same for all employees anyway, at least for hourly waged jobs like this.
I don't think there's really much of a downside to unionisation here. It's not like one staff member asking to be paid more was ever going to happen being such a small cog in such a big machine.

This thread started off from the perspective of an apple investor not a retail employee. As an investor, I think there is a real downside to unionization.
And that real downside is that it affects your stock portfolio. It improves the life of those unionizing, but that has no direct benefit to your bank account, so you wish they'd just accept the low wages, right?
