I hadn't noticed the ads at the bottom of some of the threads in the Labor forum for "The Burke Group" and other "Union Avoidance" firms until today. This from Wikipedia:

The Burke Group (TBG Labor for short) is a Malibu based American management consultancy, established in 1982. It is the largest management consultancy for "union avoidance and preventative industrial labor relations." TBG offers advice to employers and services on keeping workplaces "union free", also known as the practice of union busting.

Does anyone else here find it OFFENSIVE to have ads for such "consultants" displayed on a LABOR FORUM?
