I have no experience with unions, but I always wonder why companies allow employees to go on strike. Why couldn't they just take that to mean they quit their job and go hire new people?

They can bring in replacement workers immediately. And they can make them permanent replacement after a certain amount of time. That's what Northwest Airlines did when their mechanics went on strike in 2006.
