It is correctly said that a company generally gets the union they
deserve, and if they don't deserve one, they won't get one.

From personal experience, I agree. Sperry Utah was founded in 1956, a
direct result of union problems in New York. They purposely sought a
right-to-work state where they could engage in the research and development
stage of the Sergeant guided missile. When they opened the plant, they paid
wages in keeping with the high end of union scale, and discouraged unions
by treating employees fairly. They had learned the lesson the hard way.
They remain union-free, to this day, although the name has changed.
