What are the barriers to unions in white collar jobs?

It seems like unions are much more prevalent in blue collar type jobs. I saw a post on a different sub about some white collar worker complaining about their coworker not attending meetings, and it got me thinking if that is a barrier to unionization in white collar jobs: that employees are encouraged to turn on and blame each other. Surely white collar jobs could benefit from unionization though? I've never worked a white collar job, but those that do, what do you see as the biggest barriers to unionization?
