Detailed explanation-1: -“Multiplicity of trade unions, political rivalries, lack of resources, disunity in the ranks of workers etc., are some of the major weaknesses in a number of existing unions”.
Detailed explanation-2: -“Unionizing raises the prospect of layoffs or closure.” “It’s possible that contract negotiations could make terms of employment worse than they are now.” “Unionizing means you would have to go on strike.” “You would lose the ability to speak for yourself once you’re a union member.”

And unfortunately, some unions spend union dues on six-figure salaries for leaders and luxurious headquarters. Other drawbacks of labor union membership include less autonomy, workplace tension, and slower advancement.
