An internal auditor is usually held to some standard of confidentiality. Audit results becoming public should not happen at the decision of just the auditor (except of course if there were a legal obligation to report). In that respect she proved untrustworthy for the company by her ultimatum. She basically proved that she would be willing to make Google look bad in the future. She also went public, making Google look bad in the present. Basically the same reason for letting her go as with Damore.
- geofft 6y agoShe already had formal approval for her publication to be public well before the ultimatum. The ultimatum was in response to management saying "Actually, we're going to change the process on you because we find this work embarrassing." She did not make a decision to publish on her own. Moreover, she's not an auditor, and she has never been accused of publishing confidential information. My story about an auditor was an analogy.
