What the heck is the difference between union and non-union when it comes to work and why does everyone seem to majorly prefer union?

Question

Seriously, I’ve heard so many people cheer on union but when I search up what it is I don’t understand it in the slightest bit.

Please, explain like I’m five.

Answer 1

In a union company, workers are paid based on seniority – those that have been in the union the longest get paid the most. In a non-union company any system is possible like paying the people who do the best/most work the most,

The people who don’t do the best/most obviously profer unions.
