Google Memo - StLucieBengal - 08-10-2017 Surprised to see no thread on this news. This has to hurt google since its business model is based off open thought and sharing of ideas. Couple this with them attacking conservative YouTube creators.... will this continue to polarize everyone? http://www.dailywire.com/news/19413/googles-own-jerry-maguire-pens-10-page-manifesto-ben-shapiro Quote:Google Employee Pens 10-Page Manifesto RIPPING 'Diversity' Initiatives. So They Threaten His Job. RE: Google Memo - PhilHos - 08-10-2017 Yep. Nothing like showing how you value diversity by firing any employee that thinks differently than you.

I don't agree with Google's decision, and I don't disagree entirely with the guy's memo. That being said, a company can do what it pleases like that.

Hope you didn't read it from all the msm sources who purposely left out parts of the memo along with the graphs emphazing his points.

Nope, read the whole thing. I am a bit more discerning with my news/media selection. RE: Google Memo - StLucieBengal - 08-10-2017 (08-10-2017, 07:24 PM)Belsnickel Wrote: Nope, read the whole thing.

It was a document dump of a pdf of the complete memo, it didn't come from any media outlet. I tend to look for primary sources for things like that. RE: Google Memo - BmorePat87 - 08-10-2017 I didn't think a software engineer's thoughts on sociological and alleged biological issues were particularly important just because he worked for a major company and it sparked controversy. With regards to his workplace complaints, I believe the silencing of oppositional view points is a legit complaint of someone whose ideology differs from their workplace's mission, but this is where you either accept it, get another job, or speak up knowing you may need to get another job. Don't necessarily agree with his thoughts on diversity and discrimination. All in all, don't really care what a software engineer thinks about sociology nor do I think someone getting fired for what they said is a big deal. I don't agree with it and I think Google would look bigger if they didn't fire him, but I've always held that employers have the right to fire someone who makes statements they believe hurt their brand.

Oh, ffs, your source didn't include the crap you're whining about other sources not including.

He is using he whistleblower defense in his lawsuit. Pretty smart RE: Google Memo - Belsnickel - 08-11-2017 (08-11-2017, 01:55 AM)StLucieBengal Wrote: He is using he whistleblower defense in his lawsuit. Pretty smart I don't think it will work. From what I have read from some employment law attorneys and professors on the subject, it is highly unlikely he has a chance to win. That being said, it may end up being settled in order for Google to save face.

Even you inadvertently admitted your source didn't include the items you're whining about other sources not including. Thanks for confirming.

Just stop with the petty bickering. I posted a response to criticism to start a discussion, since it's pretty common for everyone to read at least parts of the memo. It was a great jumping off point for a discussion in the office for us. Surprised to see it not discussed here..... I guess there were too many anti trump threads.

Stop making petty remarks like above when your source left out the memo and graphs emphasizing his points and I'll stop pointing them out. BTW, your comment was criticism of someone else's response. I posted a response to your criticism of criticism. People call this witty back and forth banter a "discussion." If you don't want to have a discussion then don't pretend like you want to have a discussion. I read your source, but I still haven't read th memo or seen the graphs which emphasized his points. I hope you didn't get your information from one of those fake news sites like the daily wire that omitted all of them.

Then why are you commenting on this thread? RE: Google Memo - oncemoreuntothejimbreech - 08-11-2017 (08-11-2017, 02:16 PM)StLucieBengal Wrote: Then why are you commenting on this thread? Because I read your source whom you provided which didn't include the items you asked Matt if his sources contained. So tell me; why are Matt's sources up for debate , but the source you used to start this thread is beyond reproach? |
