If there is cause for a lawsuit, posting anything on Twitter is probably not a good idea.
Complaining to outsiders makes remediation almost impossible and it might be a bad look for other employment options.
Not saying that Google didn't suppress ambitions of its work force. But that is also up to litigation.

- alexpetralia 6y agoI always read that, during litigation, one is not supposed to disclose anything to the public. Everything should remain private and within the court, as channeled through lawyers. Can anyone comment why this is? Is it because you may potentially say the wrong, and therefore self-harming or self-incriminating thing? Does it simply hurt your case, from the judge's perspective (i.e. they prefer to keep things private)? Is there some cost-benefit analysis going on, and generally it is thought that there is zero benefit to public disclosure while the case is ongoing? Might it bias potential jurors, and that is problematic?
- raxxorrax 6y ago> Is it because you may potentially say the wrong, and therefore self-harming or self-incriminating thing I am no lawyer, but yes, it is basically about "everything you say can be held against you". That is also the reason you shouldn't just answer any questions from the police, just cooperate otherwise and let your lawyer handle the rest. Judges should be impartial, but if a defamation suit would follow where the accused tried the court of public opinion to handle the issue, it might be detrimental. I guess the same pattern of though is true for employers.
