Yes, Google employees can post rants on Twitter as long as it is the party line.
Some of those rants remind me of "spontaneous" pro party demonstrations of children wearing red neck scarves in North Korea.
- shadowgovt 6y agoIt's a little more complicated than that, but to a first approximation, you're basically correct. Worth noting, of course, is most Google employees actually believe in the party line. Like, it's not an act... They are at will employees working for an employer they believe in. Google doesn't tend to retain long employees who stop believing in the mission or the execution of the mission (because having Google on your resume opens a door to them basically taking any other job).
- bxfarmer 6y agoI guess many of the recent hires believe the party line. But some of the worst Twitter cases are from people who got into Google early and ostensibly adopted the party line in the last 8 years. These would perhaps get any other job, but whether they could keep it is another story.
