Yes, but they don’t make news or to the top of lemmy for very long ever. Paizo is an example of a relatively established company that welcomed unionization. I’m sure there are others.
My last company I worked for in Sweden even one of the bosses was in the Union, the whole company had a very friendly approach to the wokersunion even if a minor dispute occured here and there they were oftenly switly solved.
The Union is strong in my current company and the leadership does not see it as a threat.
Work morale is very high here and the company is extremely dynanic and solution oriented from top to bottom, and we are about 50 people. Also Scandinavia.
The pillaging was actually only a very small part. The vast majority of going Viking was pure trade or, when conquest was on the table, colonization. That’s how you get the Rus Vikings. When a bunch of pagans see unguarded temples, though, all filled with gold, and their gods would be pleased by the offering of such things? Yeah, they’re going to pillage. It was often far easier to just trade with the people already there, and so they did. The idea that they’re all there to make blood-eagles and die in glorious battle is ridiculous. They had a complex civilisation that set up many of the mediaeval trade routes throughout Europe and into the middle east.
Yes, a company I worked for did. They were a mission-driven org that was established to reduce poverty in historically disadvantaged groups. Along the way they, like many mission-driven orgs, became so poorly managed that their employees got pissed at them and decided to form a union. The org voluntarily recognized them, and now gets kicked in the face every 3-4 years during negotiations because the org is still poorly run.
Has there ever been a corporation or company that welcomed unions? Serious question

Yes but they are small.
Closest we’ve got is companies not actively union busting
