A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

If I find out my company is a piece of shit I'm leaving, why shouldn't they be allowed to end the arrangement?
im just a bystander to this conversation but it really seems like you saw all those words in that comment and treated them like a fart in the wind, and then just wrote whatever you felt like.
that's a really privileged position to be in that billions of others don't have
(don't feel the need to add any more, @viq has it more than covered! 👍)

😁🙇
You're doing great!
@VanillaGorilla
Why should they be able to for reasons not related to my work performance or outright violations of work code? Are we back to feudalism, where a lord can do whatever they like, to whomever they like, on a whim, with no control or consequences? Are rules and consequences only for the little people?

I'm not talking about them taking a dislike in you. I'm talking about you talking shit about the company or posting shit against laws or just plain offensive. If nobody can connect your profile to you/your company why should they care. If they can, it's about them as well as it's about you.
At least in my country they can't just fire you without reason. If you are a - for example - racist piece of shit on the internet and it can be tracked back to your company then hell yeah, they should at least give you a warning if not set you free.
