Employees do not share in the profits so should not have to bear ANY of the risks. (No, the fact they have a job at all is NOT sharing in the profit).

How is it not? In small businesses wages are often more than the dividends. As in, employees get paid first, ask any small business owner about that.

Cost of recruitment is just cost of doing business. (There is no cost if you don't have to recruit).

Yes. But it means you're not wanting to fire people randomly most of the time.

Making employees disposable just means the employer has no exposure there, while the employee has it all.

It doesn't make employees disposable, see above. People quit far more often than they're fired.

But like I said, I'm not even talking about this from the perspective of the employer, but instead from the employee. Money is more replaceable than time, and it is not ethical to trap someone in a situation that makes them hate their life for a month.

I was basically the only employee in Europe, the other employee had his visa revoked because of the companies incompetence they didn't file his paperwork properly.

And the freedom at-will employment gives you is overshadowed by the freedom it gives companies to have employees bear the risk, while hoarding all the profits.

Both parties bear the risk. It's hard and expensive for companies to replace most people in developed economies. Have you ever been fired with no notice? Because my understanding is workers quit a lot more often than they get fired(or at least that's what I've done).

I'll leave it at that, and if you spout corporate propaganda that has been ingrained into you from birth.. I'll call it like it is.

My beliefs are based on a consistent set of ethics. Stop insulting me.

It was a job that required traveling, was trying to refuse paying overtime for travel time. Because I was constantly traveling I couldn't see my friends, family, or partner. Was unpredictable mandatory overtime.

But I already quit months ago.

And yes, I'm sure some of that was illegal on their part. But there wasn't much I could do.

Yeah, let's make all regulations up based on exceptions and edgecases.

When it comes to people's freedoms, yes.

If something happens and you need space, most EU countries have leave for that

Assuming you've earned/haven't used it.

Again, strange corpo way of trying to normalize not having proper contracts and labor protections. You have bought in to the propaganda too much.

Not a corpo. Stop with the ad hominems.

Probably anti union too, no?

Some unions do good things, some do bad.
