Mark Jen lasted 11 days at Google before he was sacked, probably for reasons related to his blog. Mark puts his side of the story in ninetyninezeros: the official story, straight from the source , although it is a bit light on detail.
The comments are interesting - a sort of 'all human life is here' experience. There are the 'hello mother!' types, who just want to get their name in lights, the people trying to hijack an event to generate publicity for whatever they are selling, conspiracy theorists, reactionary 'serves you right' posters and plenty more.
For my part, it has always seemed a bit daft to clearly identify ones employer and then bitch about them without a fairly thick cloak of anonymity. My economic well-being depends on my employer's success, and doing stuff designed to undermine that would be, well, just stupid. If there is stuff you don't like, do your best to make the changes from the inside. If you really don't like it, then leave. Or perhaps I've missed something?
