I downvoted you but I feel bad for not explaining why.
One of my memories: Being pulled into a side office and grilled for a half hour for posting a similarly harmless statement to HN.
So your comment triggered mild PTSD.
It's not your place as an individual employee to post about your employer. You work in a team setting. If the team decides it's appropriate to post to HN, then that's fine. But you alone do not get to decide that.
- sam_lynx 6y agoWhat? You are suggesting that a person is unable to share his personal experiences and opinions unless their employer agrees? Obviously this may damage the company, but personally I have no sympathy for a company worth billions of dollars who is not known for their fair treatment of workers at all. I see nothing immoral in the original commenter releasing this information.
- sillysaurusx 6y agoIt doesn't matter whether you see something immoral about it. Employers do punish employees for doing so.
- sam_lynx 6y agoYes, that is why he used a burner account.
- rexpop 6y ago> It's not your place Strange how your response to abuse isn't to warn us about abuse, but to moralize about the actions through which your abuser justified their emotional violence.
