Depends on the details. For a lower level position I might give a written warning, on the provision they take down the offending post(s). But since she’s named a client, that could harm business relations. So in that instance the severity of the misdeed is greater.
I’m sure their performance would be taken into account too. If someone is generally a high performing individual who had this one incident then a more lenient outcome might be expected. But if the company are already unhappy with the employee’s performance then this might just be used as an excuse to terminate their employment.
- WalterBright 4y agoHow would you feel if you were paying them and they were slagging off you?
- ipaddr 4y agoDid you ever consider listening to the reasons they were slagging you off? Was it true, did you make changes

- hourago 4y ago> They should come to me with their issues, not social media. So many companies say this to just fire people that bring feedback. Whistleblowers are needed for a reason. This concept that companies are always right is alien to me. I have only heard it from management, and only towards subordinates because management are the first ones to badly complain about their own salaries and jobs.

I just said I don't care to pay people that say hateful things about me. I seriously doubt you or anyone else would, either. Suppose you hired a maid, who then posted online about all your unattractive habits?
