I work in a research hospital, I went through a lot of similar meetings, and a lot of emails talking about where to get help if you're feeling down.
I remember thinking hey this is a bit over-blown... but then I talked to this Iranian guy on my floor: he was extremely shocked and depressed. He had a situation on his hands -- he wanted his wife to come to America, but was afraid that wouldn't be possible and he was entertaining the idea of just quitting and returning to Iran.
Surely at Google, where a lot of immigrants work, they went through similar experiences.
So I totally am okay with what I see in the video -- I think it was the right move by GOOG executives to take that position, if only for the employees.

- Domenic_S 8y agoThe ban has exceptions for, for ex. students; there are still ways.
- ryanobjc 8y agoAlso, many people think that openly accepting immigrants is what makes both google and America great. It was pretty clear that trump was very anti immigrant. And that’s a direct attack on the success of google. And the first thing he did policy wise literally confirmed everyone’s worst fears.
