. Employee organizers point to recent changes as dissolving transparency within the company.
“I think that it is extremely important for workers to feel like they have a voice in what they're building,” says Spiers, who has been involved in protests about Google’s partnership with CPB and other organizing efforts, including the creation of a tool that automatically emailed Google’s top lawyer, Kent Walker, every time a user opened a new internal document. The idea was to protest “vague” guidelines around what information could only be viewed on a need-to-know basis.
“The reason I want to go back isn't because of my love of Google, it’s because of my love of Google's users,” she says. “I believe they still deserve the best security that we can provide.”On or about December 13, 2019, Google unlawfully terminated the employment of Kathryn Spiers, an engineer with outstanding evaluations, in response to her concerted and protected activity.
Google’s interrogation of Ms. Spiers regarding her lawful actions and termination of her employment based upon those lawful actions, was done to attempt to quell Spiers and other employees from asserting their right to engage in concerted protected activities. Google’s actions are the antithesis of the freedoms and transparency it publicly touts and violates Ms. Spiers’ and other Google employees’ rights to engage in concerted activity protected under the National Labor Relations Act.
