Seriously - is the dynamics different at places where there are no unions? Less severance? More people cut? Is union here actually very useful or is it just a dud?

Salary force reduction. Union stays.
Layoffs are done strictly by reverse seniority. The union protects senior employees. It's a good and a bad thing. Performance is not a factor, although the company can protect just a handful of super performers and the Union is ok with it if the number stays equal or lower to the amount of Stewards since Stewards cannot be laid off.
Low impact / Same or better Severance
