Back in 2003, after i had given my two weeks notice but had not left yet, I posted on Yahoo finance that i thought the company i worked for "underpaid employees". That was it. And who is reading Yahoo finance anyway? I was asked to leave prior to the two weeks ending, and at least one person at where i was being hired had read it. I deleted it, pronto, and nothing bad happened to me, but it was definitely a learning experience. people that know you read the most obscure corners of the internet, and it should never be taken for granted. i suspect this person will have a hard time finding employment.
- nojvek 10y agoSo if you openly complain about sexual harassment or employers treating their employees in an unethical way, no one wants you?
- johnmarcus 10y agoWell...yes. For the most part. The ugly reality is that if a company doesn't hire a known troublemaker, they are less likely to be subject to troublemaking. If you think companies, startup or otherwise, are going to act in some altruistic compassionate way toward employees at their own risk, well, you will probably be disappointed. Like 99% of the time. Especially when most of the whining sounds very subjective to opinion, as it is here.
