Google has fired 28 employees who staged in sit-in which was protesting the company’s $1.2 billion cloud contract with Israeli government.

Nine employees were also arrested.

In a note sent to employees the company says: “If you're one of the few who are tempted to think we're going to overlook conduct that violates our policies, think again.”

Googlers,

You may have seen reports of protests at some of our offices yesterday. Unfortunately, a number of employees brought the event into our buildings in New York and Sunnyvale. They took over office spaces, defaced our property, and physically impeded the work of other Googlers.

Their behavior was unacceptable, extremely disruptive, and made coworkers feel threatened. We placed employees involved under investigation and cut their access to our systems. Those who refused to leave were arrested by law enforcement and removed from our offices.

Following investigation, today we terminated the employment of twenty-eight employees found to be involved. We will continue to investigate and take action as needed.

Behavior like this has no place in our workplace and we will not tolerate it. It clearly violates multiple policies that all employees must adhere to - including our Code of Conduct and Policy on Harassment, Discrimination, Retaliation, Standards of Conduct, and Workplace Concerns.

We are a place of business and every Googler is expected to read our policies and apply them to how they conduct themselves and communicate in our workplace. The overwhelming majority of our employees do the right thing. If you're one of the few who are tempted to think we're going to overlook conduct that violates our policies, think again. The company takes this extremely seriously, and we will continue to apply our longstanding policies to take action against disruptive behavior — up to and including termination.

You should expect to hear more from leaders about standards of behavior and discourse in the workplace.

@AZinCLE @Delta Agreed. I was so sad to not be given any on my recent @delta trip in PS to DSS. Whyyyyyy?

@TaraBull808 Instead of running them over, maybe they should be arrested. Hmmmm.

@RandoMidwest @AntisemitismCA ALL Montrealers should be concerned. Not just Jews. Not just donors.

[Nancy Vineberg @nancyvineberg]

@BulldogShadow I am so afraid how these attacks on Jews and Muslims will continue and get worse. We need our allies. 💔

@nomadinrv @pdnell @rafaelshimunov Cutting olive trees/stealing livestock versus let’s see: burning babies alive in front of their parents, raping women and parading their bodies, beheading hostages and live-streaming to social media, gunning down 250 young people at a festival - you’re right, exactly the same.

@wildhairedshrew Well. Bibi has been funding Hamas, so… 🤷‍♀️

[Nancy Vineberg @nancyvineberg]

@wildhairedshrew Don’t hold your breath. They’ll just say it’s Israeli propaganda.

@AscCarolyn Keep things straight, Professor Marvin!

@pdnell Mix in with ice cream - maybe the Talenti double chocolate. Or, use as top layer of a pavlova.

@Delta Turks!

@Delta Hmmm. I prefer those Michel and Augustin ones in C+ 😀

ATTENTION BOSTON: If you have TOYS 🧸 or FOOD 🥫 and a way to get them to ROXBURY - Walthall Chapel on Blue Hill Ave needs a Christmas miracle ASAP. The pastor told #wbz their weekly food delivery was canceled bc of storm, and donated Christmas toys are wet from rain.

@rgay @Harvard Wow!!

@rompe_redes_16 @JTGoodness @NatiZev @The1stCoco @Lucas_Shaw @TaylorLorenz Same reason people hate Muslims, Black people, Asians. Bigotry. Duh.

We asked them to ban AR-15s, and they banned abortions instead.

10k Americans turn 65 every day, many with lots of time and money and good pans on tap. @bonappetit enough with the illegible teeny typefaces, gah!
