'In a memo sent to all employees on Wednesday, Chris Rackow, Google’s head of global security, said that “behavior like this has no place in our workplace and we will not tolerate it.” You can read the full memo at the bottom of this story.'
The memo makes it clear that Google fired the employees for rule and policy violations:
"They took over office spaces, defaced our property, and physically impeded the work of other Googlers. Their behavior was unacceptable, extremely disruptive, and made coworkers feel threatened."
Would they have been fired for protesting less aggressively?
- jsiepkes 3y agoMy guess is if Google wanted to fire them for it (even if it was less aggressive) they could have. In most countries you can go on strike, but there are rules and laws on how to do so. Doing some other form of protest (like they did) is likely going to be a violation of workplace policies in a way not protected by law.
