Not necessarily because the monopolies themselves are then more prone to disruption.

If Amazon’s the only game in town and Amazon workers go on strike, you have problems that can’t be resolved by competitors rushing in to fill the gaps.

My experience is that the more powerful the employer, the harder it is to organize.

To your direct point, this is why you organize entire industries within a given geography for service work rather than employer by employer. (It's also why there's been a big push over the last year towards sectoral bargaining.)
