It's not a myth. Legal and HR will explain to you how easily the company can get sued in those cases. It can be VERY hard to let go an employee who is member of a minority (I speak of experience).
- cowsandmilk 12y agonot if you have been properly documenting things for everyone you fire. Amazon fires enough people that they should have procedures in place that make this trivial.

- petervandijck 12y agoFor people not familiar with the way things work in the USA, "properly documenting" here means that you need at least a few months of written warnings, an "improvement plan" that then "failed" and such before you can fire someone who just isn't working out at all. In other words, it's very hard to fire them.
