A Google employee who helped organize walkouts has resigned, alleges she was the target of a campaign of retaliation designed to intimidate and dissuade others
badge or no, Claire isn't going away, nor are the 1000s organizing across the company. 📣 Structural change IS coming to tech https://twitter.com/... @carmencrincoli : This thread is what a failure of leadership looks like to the employees who do the work. A positive workplace culture can't survive sustained evasion for long. Please take note, Microsoft leadership. Dump the PAC while you still have some high ground left. The waters are rising. https://twitter.com/...

Julia Carrie Wong / @juliacarriew : One of the organizers of the Google Walkout, @clairewaves, has left the company over alleged retaliation for her organizing. “In a way it showed me how powerful the organizing has been because it was truly extreme,” she told me. https://www.theguardian.com/ ... Julia Carrie Wong / @juliacarriew : Stapleton was at Google for 12 years.

Solidarity with her & every other worker who has the bravery to speak out. https://twitter.com/...
