I'm curious on others insight about one section of the email management sent to employees regarding leaks:
"Please remember: whether malicious or unintentional, leaks damage our culture. Be aware of the company information you share and with whom you share it. If you’re considering sharing confidential information to a reporter—or to anyone externally—for the love of all that’s Googley, please reconsider! Not only could it cost you your job, but it also betrays the values that makes us a community."
I certainly understand the potential business impact leaking information, but what is the aspect of the Google culture a leaked email harms?
- googsh0tz 9y agoTrading the short game for the long game.
- zeroxfe 9y agoThe culture of transparency. Google is enormously transparent internally. The more there are leaks, the less incentive there is to be transparent.
- bobbytherobot 9y agoAhh, thanks.
- MS_Buys_Upvotes 9y agoYou're right - it doesn't apply to culture. The "corporate person" is being a sociopath as usual and rather than saying "it harms our company" they attempt to spin it into something that hurts the individuals that work at the company. It doesn't. It hurts the "corporate person", but they can't come out and say that.
