So are they going to do the NLRB election or no? Isn't that the normal process?

It is... They probably don't want to have a class that omits some managers or something.

I don't know anything about that law firm, but secret-ballot election conducted by theĀ National Labor Relations BoardĀ is the appropriate path forward. Chaining that it's not and blaming the foundation for that is a certain kind of mental gymnastics that doesn't make sense
