Heard from a friend that Google is firing sales people with bad/ below average numbers. Google used to be a company that was huge on culture. They believed in people and supported them during their highs and lows but in some Ads Sales (Account Management) organizations people are being fired for not...Read more

Good riddance. Demanding to know the identities of your paper’s reviewers so that you can inevitably intimidate and retaliate against them for their feedback, as Timnit has done dozens of times on Twitter, is unacceptable. She should be fired, and she gave them an easy out by giving them an ultimat...Read more
https://twitter.com/RealAbril/status/1341135819487100928 This is really saddening. We are capable of doing so much better as an industry. I believe that Google does have a D&I problem and has major bias in their recruiting practices. I believe most companies in our industry have the same problems, ...Read more
