Google fires around 50 employees
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 апр 2024
- Google fired about 20 more workers it said participated in protests denouncing the company’s cloud computing deal with the Israeli government, bringing the total number of workers fired in the past week over the issue to more than 50, according to the activist group representing the workers.
A spokesperson for Google confirmed it had fired more workers after continuing its investigation into the April 16 protests, which included sit-ins at Google’s offices in New York City and Sunnyvale, Calif.
The firings come several days after chief executive Sundar Pichai told employees in a companywide memo that they should not use the company as a “personal platform” or “fight over disruptive issues or debate politics.”

Somehow, Bezos has been a decent steward of WaPo. Every once in a while there's a really sus opinion piece like "mmmm did Bezos plant this" but honestly it's not that often. Really the NYT Opinion section is the one you'd think is owned by him considering all the weird stuff that gets posted there.
I think Elon thought he could do the same with Twitter, and thought he was smart for acquiring a "new media" company instead of an old newspaper. Instead it just proved to the world that he doesn't know anything. Bezos knows when to delegate.

It takes a lot of courage to do many stupid or inappropriate things. That is no reason to reward them for it. Companies are not moral agents and should not attempt to act like them. The greatest good that any company can do for the world is to make the best product they can at the lowest possible price they can without having to screw over their employees. The resources freed by inexpensive and effective product can be used to help a group that a paltry couple hundred thousand in corporate charity will do.

I miss "Do no evil"
Yeah that dissipated just as soon as google learned that evil was very profitable. I'm unsure it these are directly link but there is a correlation. The do no evil philosophy was expunged at about the same time it was revealed that Google was getting rid of their original employees that were selected for being highly skilled coders and other computer scientists. To the kind of people who use terms like Equity to refer to anything other than transferable assets. (This is why google no longer innovates. They buy stuff that other people created and tweak it from there. The Google of today could have never created their flagship product. The Google search engine. They just don't have the guys with those skills at that level anymore.
It is likely total coincidence but it does seem fitting that they lost their Don't be Evil motto at the same time they were being one of the first major corporations to adopt the largest evil that is infesting the corporate world and has knock on effect that are detrimental to everything it touches. Early DEI when people aren't chosen for being good at what they do but instead reduces them to a set of check boxes. Last I checked we had all pretty much decided that racism was evil and to be avoided and there they are putting a new coat of paint on it then saying that it is totally different and somehow acceptable now.
It was never "Do no evil," it was the much less prescriptive "Don't be evil."
You can do evil unless you let any get all over you and you become evil. Just don't do that.
How dare you act as though you have any influence on the direction of the company you work for.
They got fired because they harrased someone in management and refused to leave. That's you're employer not your government. The reason we expect rights from governments is because they have impose their will using the threat of force and they collect taxes using force. If you don't like you're employers politics you can protest but they can also fire you for being a disturbance. Are you actually a working journalist?
Facts! Also I don’t personally think it’s about politics at all it’s about profits. Corporations don’t play politics if it hurts there bottom line. People need to understand google doesn’t care whether you disagree with there business decision if you don’t agree you are free to leave in a free market.

Thst argument, from an ethical standpoint, doesn't really work when the cause for complaint is murder.

Just because a company has a legal right to make a deal doesn't mean that it's the right, i.e. moral, thing to do.

Sounds like Google did nothing wrong. You have unsurprisingly few rights on private property.
Well, except for the part where they provided military technology to a rogue state actively engaged in a gen. and in violation of multiple international laws and ICJ rulings.
And also their firing of staff who were not a part of the protest but merely bystanders.
@@yessum15 can you provide reputable sources on both of your statements?
@@Gravesend83 Sure. Most recently, the NY Post 6 hours ago indicating that 20 dismissed employees were not participating in the protests.
With regard to the belligerent state of the country. The ICJ, UN, EU, and USA have all openly acknowledged the massive violations of international law. Feel free to peruse the text of the ICJ ruling against them, every general assembly resolution over the past 6 months, every statement made by every humanitarian/international law institute on the planet, etc.
@@yessum15most of those claims were debunked and/or can be proven wrong. You seem to be able to research what you want, but not what you need.
@@diomarkov2794 Unfortunately that is not possible. If the ICJ, UN, EU, ICC, Amnesty, and every major state in the world agree regarding the belligerent state's record, there is literally no one left to do the debunking.
That phone vibration buzzing got me. It's a different vibration than my phone has ever done so I hurriedly grabbing my phone just in case it's the "oh shit nuclear war" vibration pattern
They work for the business. Not the other way around

I am Mr Nimbus, I control the police.
Google had all the right to fire them. They were protesting on private property and were violating company policy; it’s that simple.
Yeah but Google is also supporting a genocide and fired them for not wanting to be complicit freedom to act isn't freedom from criticism
Well, I guess the lesson here is: don’t use company time and resources for your own personal endeavors. They can go work for some other politically bias hack job company. Maybe even the Washington post.
@@tengilleyou just described capitalism
@@tdrg_yeah he did
@@tdrg_I mean he described every economic system with a market where people are free to move around including mercantilism and socialism. You don’t like it? Then find someone better to work for, it’s really that simple lol
Those people don't have to work for Google if they don't like Google.
Oh wait, they don't work for Google anymore :D
You hired to work not to protest. If you don’t like your job or the company you work for, resignation is your way to protest.
Ok and how is it wronged to get arrested for breaking the low?
Which law? The right to peacefully protest is an American thing.
@@crystocious6715 not on private property
If you don't like Google don't work for Google, surely you can't be surprised when your extremely disruptive actions get you fired
I'm proud of Google for standing up to antisemitism. Great job Guys 👍
lmao. You are very silly.
Real journalists for saying who owns them.
They have balls to protest in the CEO's office especially when their banks, Government and Military are run by the same group of people who sides with Israel.
And fired. Don’t forget being fired. If you stand up for your beliefs, don’t complain about the consequences. Remember as you always tell us, the first amendment doesn’t mean there aren’t consequences.
If you take over your boss' office and refuse to leave you'll get fired*
@@fyukfy2366 Do you for a second think employees taking over their bosses's office doesn't make them sound ten times cooler than they did before? Lmao. Absolute bootlicker behavior! Deeply unserious
"We like your opnions, just dont say them out loud"
It’s not really a “protest” when you sit in your bosses office for 6 hours and refuse to leave and disrupt others work as well as your own on company time
Lmao imagine supporting palestine
why don't you? I think everyone should support innocent lives.
@@ThePoodleI mean if all we care about is the innocent lives then the war would be over tomorrow if Hamas gave up and Palestinians stopped fighting for land that they lost in wars decades ago.
@@huntermarquette3484 hamas didn't exist 30 years ago but it seems like the war continued, and there is no hamas in west bank yet settlers still kills people who live there originally, sounds like the other group is the problem
@@huntermarquette3484 Hamas wouldn't be in power in Palestine if the Israeli government hadn't propped them up.
Poor quality troll! 2/10
If you are going to “stand” for a terrorist organization, you should be fired. Your employer has every right to fire you at an “at will” workplace
I think they were fired for their behavior, not their message. It’s a problem with lefties, they behave terribly, get in trouble and claim free speech, but if their signs 🪧 had the opposite message, they still would have gotten fired.
This is too deep a nuance for liberals to understand.
there are different ideas over what a terrorist organisation is (some people would even classify the USA as terrorists because of their constant disruption of world peace). Also, these people were likely not standing in support of Hamas, but the Palestinian people, and there's an important distinction to be made
@@Knightway1 the Palestinian people overwhelmingly support Hamas, and I’m tired of the lie that they don’t. More than 80% of the Palestinian population supported the October 7th massacre. What’s funny is that Israel is the country that has accepted the largest amount of immigrants from Palestine because none of the countries around Palestine will accept them. Even Egypt who used to own the Gaza Strip.
Didn’t realize the over ten thousand children Israel has killed since October 7th, and the over 20 thousand civilians overall were terrorists. You wanna expound on how that works?
@puffena9013 those sources are hamas controlled so uh don't take them with certainty hamas has spread propaganda a lot
They protested on company property. Not a free speech play. Keep it in the street. Not the brightest bulbs in the box.
