> N26 has filed another restraining order to prevent today's Electoral Board Selection for N26 GmbH, this time against the union ver.di. As such, IG Metall has stepped in to chair today's meeting. It will take place at the same venue, with the time delayed so people can make it.

- DasIch 6y agoIt’s interesting you mention Walmart. Walmart has failed spectacularly in trying to enter the German market. Their treatment of employees probably was a factor but probably not the most important one though.
- DoofusOfDeath 6y agoIANAL, so perhaps someone could clarify a detail for me: I've seen phrasing such as "N26 has filed another restraining order ...". Is that just a shorthand way of saying that N26 filed a request for a court to issue a restraining order, and that request was granted?
