100 google employees wow

every change starts with a few people, and then it grows

  • Google is grandfathered into a few preexisting defense contracts. Any red lines you draw may have already been crossed.

    • Contracts expire and can be renegotiated, or even reneged on if you are willing to accept the consequences (which you may see as preferable to enabling wanton murder)

  • > every change starts with a few people, and then it grows

    your opinion is defense contracts are bad

    my opinion is defense contracts are good

    who is correct? probably me since 99.9% of Googlers won’t leave over this

    • Thanks for informing me of my opinion on defense contracts /s

      Their goal is not to leave, it is to start a conversation that hopefully ends up changing company policy.

    • Why is there any controversy about defending one's nation being "good" or "bad"?

      I can not believe what I am reading here, and how the single comment supporting defending one's country is so heavily downvoted. Qatar has poisoned Western online communities such that all defence of the United States is considered taboo? I don't even live in the US and I am frightened by what I see here.
