This is utter nonsense. If you looked outside her twitter feed and at evidence, its clear she was fired because she was toxic. Her threat to leave was her own fault which allows google to move forward. Look at her interactions with respected people like lecun. She has issues with disagreeing with people. She may be qualified, she can have opinions, you can also be the best engineer. If you are an asshole when it comes to disagreeing, then no one will want to work with you. Everyone is replaceable.
- dash2 6y agoIt is not clear at all. Nobody at Google has said that she was fired for being toxic. That’s your inference.
- mustuhfa 6y agoSometimes reasons for firing are the last straw, not all the other things that led to that point.
- lallysingh 6y agoAnother inference
- mustuhfa 6y agoGoogle let her go early claiming her actions were "inconsistent with the expectations of a Google manager". As per the above comment
- tolbish 6y agoGoogle let her go early claiming her actions were "inconsistent with the expectations of a Google manager". That is the language used when firing someone for their behavior.
- ergocoder 6y ago> Nobody at Google has said that she was fired for being toxic. No company will ever say this publicly. Yes, that's my inference. Looking at this Twitter thread between her and Jeff Dean 6 months ago: https://twitter.com/JeffDean/status/1278571537776271360 https://twitter.com/JeffDean/status/1278571537776271360 ... She is highly toxic, not just in general, but specifically toward Jeff Dean, who is her manager's manager. Actually, doing that against anyone is not okay. Reading between the line, she is absolutely fired for her toxicity. This event is just a last straw.
