Work Reform

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

LinkedIn jobs everywhere also say they're hiring, but you see the same jobs being listed 6 months later.
Companies are projecting growth to try and convince investors that they're still in the expanding phase of their growth cycle, but everyone is cutting left right and center.
They absolutely will hire new people of course, you just have to take a huge salary cut. Less than what the current people at that company are earning.
That's what these jobs are advertising: "There's work, but we need to know you'll work for cheaper than our current new hires who we will promptly let go of. No severance, this job won't last the year."
My work is "not laying anyone off", but they sure aren't replacing anyone who leaves and are getting aggressive with their HR meetings.
