韓國三星SDS工會成立僅一天，便正式向管理層提出集體談判要求。該工會於7月6日下午啓動入會申請，僅約兩小時內便吸納了超過2000名成員；到了次日（7月7）下午1點30分左右，成員人數已激增至4342人。三星SDS共有約1.1萬名員工，工會設定的目標是爭取超過5500名成員，以佔據員工總數半數以上的多數地位。三星SDS此前以現金形式發放績效獎金，現計劃將制度改爲發放相當於年薪20%的公司股票作爲獎金；目前，針對該方案的員工投票正在進行中，投票將於7月7日午夜截止。反對改革的員工認爲，股票形式的獎金與股價波動、行業指數及外部環境等外部指標掛鉤，難以變現，且不計入退休金計算基數，這使員工處於不利地位。
