Is google to blame for her losing the distinction between life and employment, or for not reprimanding her tech lead without conducting a fair enquiry as she expects be done?

A former Google engineer said she endured a year of harassment. She’s now vowing to ‘never love a job again.’

PeopleOps is broken at Google. This is not a unique story.

Some additional background , maybe unpopular opinion - The verbiage of the Nytimes post seems sensationalized and the author also has a book about to be released. Coincidence? Sounds like PR

If you look through the internal eng-misc threads and memegen posts that discuss this topic, you'll see that the author's account is not surprising and is part of an overall trend.

This is a huge miss if HR or the Manager can't move seats. It almost seems unbelievable.

Going to sound harsh, try unemployment for 7 months and see how the opinion changes. I'm not saying she wasn't sexually harassed but I think we need to appreciate how lucky we are to have these insane TC jobs.

That doesn’t excuse harassment and retaliation.

TC is irrelevant here
