Google Employees Explain How They Were Retaliated Against for Reporting Abuse
I realise I might get downvoted here because of an unpopular point of view, but some of these comments raise a few flags:<p>“I reported it up to where my manager knew, my director knew, the coworker’s manager knew and our HR representative knew. Nothing happened. I was warned that things will get very serious if continued,”<p>So EVERYONE knew and they still disagreed with their point of view. Warned them that accusations without proof like that would get serious. Does that make them evil?<p>“I whistle blew a colleague who used the N-word in jokes. HR found nothing conclusive”<p>So HR investigated, found nothing conclusive. What is the alternative? The did their job and arrived to a conclusion. Just because the conclusion did not match the accusation, now Google is evil?<p>“when I was sexually harassed on my former team by my [team lead] I quickly reported it to my manager. I was told I was ‘overreacting’ and that I should just ‘get over it.’”<p>Again, this seems to be a subjective stance. Your manager thought you were overreacting, given whatever proof &#x2F; accusations you provided. Just because he &#x2F; she did not agree with it, does not mean they are evil.
