'Divide and rule' is an easier principle to implement in a large organisation like PwC than it is going to be in Jerrek's firm - which, unless he comes up with an unusually big idea is likely to number only a few employees for at least its first few years. Jerrek may not formally recognise a trade union but if his small band of wage slaves gang up on him he will be forced to recognise it. If he doesn't, he could threaten to sack them (which would be huis right), but losing your entire workforce overnight is a sure way to delay (or even prevent) delivery to your customers, and guess what happens then...
