Where do you think Uber hires the creeps from. 🤡🤡🤡
Is this true or fake news
True.
Uber's problem is systematic, no doubt. But I think Google is actively trying to take advantage of the earlier news and leaking these to further sabotaging Uber's reputation. Thoughts?
I think it paints google in a bad light personally
Apparently he was forced to resign at google and the female employee didn't want to go public with this, so the company kept quiet.
How does Uber hire executives without references or background checks?
If Uber did a background check and came up empty, that must've meant that Google was keeping this secret
Unless it was criminally prosecuted, it wouldn't show up on a background check. Believe it or not, it's also pretty legally dicey to give someone a poor reference, even if they are a monster, because it opens the door for lawsuits claiming they lost future wages or defamation. Now, there is definitely a code language when it comes to references that HR/Recruiters pick up on, and I find it extremely hard to believe that someone as well known as Amit could keep the reason for his departure from Google a secret from everyone. It seems extremely unlikely to me that no one on the hiring team at Uber knew an SVP had a bad exit from Google. They hired him anyway, but for all the reasons above, there will be no paper trail that they knew. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Uber is making way too much noise lately... firing the guy because he was once accused of sexual harassment isn't fair. Did he do anything at Uber? That's what matters now.
It's fair. He was forced to leave google over this, wasn't a voluntary retirement. And did not disclose the issue to Uber.
so if I'm fired from a company, I'm legally. required to report it when hunting job?
👏
