I do grant them all the benefit of the doubt. I want them to succeed as it would be very good to have more players in the market.
My question is when did the inconvenience of proving a real legal basis stop a big company attacking a smaller competitor? Hoover and Dyson is a good example, and in this case, it's a bit more personal.
- rjurney 16y agoMany companies recruit and retain good people by not being shits. They want you to be successful while you work there and after. I have little doubt these guys left with good blessings.
- gojomo 16y agoWe should also be granting Amazon the benefit of the doubt unless/until they do something objectionable. Neither of these expecting-the-worst scenarios -- that these employees are facing legal troubles from former employer, nor that their former employer is likely to give them legal troubles -- should be assumed without evidence. That some other 'big company' once before did something similar isn't enough to suggest there's trouble lurking here. Maybe it's enough to ask the earnest question -- "do they have Amazon's blessing?" But not predict problems -- "can't see how Amazon will be happily quiet with this situation".
