Some industries like programming are not quite as simple to get unionization going. Pretty much only public sector jobs have unions when it comes to programming. I wish that weren't the case. On the flip side though, the abundance of programming jobs (when there isn't a damn near tech recession) makes switching jobs to get a huge raise pretty clearly the way to go.
