Depends on if the goal was a payday, or to send a message.

  Well they did reject a $15m payout after they won the first trial.

    Yes, because they wanted $160 million which is what their lawyers wanted in the second trail. In the first suit jury awarded $137 million, judge lowered that to $15 and they had an option to get that or have a new trial. They went with a new trial. So yeah, it was all about the money.

      What's worse, is that with the media coverage about this, a company is going to think twice about hiring that employee. I think lawsuits do more harm for the employee than good. Unless they just win an obscene amount of money to set themselves up for life, otherwise they have a scarlet letter.
