That's not true, you can still join a union, and you can always make a choice
How high of a level though and where at? pushing upper level, near executive.
It's possible to be in a union at any level as long as you don't own the company
Edit: well, there's some unions that even let them in, but less of them, and usually limit it to "only if the company has less than 500 employees and earns less than AMOUNT" (I dunno the number)
