I'm always baffled when I see the stuff employees complain about in SF. Not that they're wrong, but my experience is that these things are 100% standard across the board. I've never worked somewhere that I could openly call out my chief executives in front of the whole team and not expect that to be a thoroughly career limiting move. I've definitely never worked anywhere that I could organize protests and still expect to have a job by the end of the day. (I'm aware of unionized workplaces that do this on a semi-regular basis, but that's about it and you can bet that participation guarantees you won't be considered for joining management any time soon.) I hesitate to say y'all are entitled, because maybe you're right to be doing this. Maybe I'm jealous. I dunno. But I feel like at a minimum the people at these companies don't recognize how uncommonly privileged they are to even be able to voice their concerns like this. By all means, fight the good fight, but if you ever leave the valley... good luck to you.
