An example of what employees have experienced is as follows.

“I am a latin woman, but I have been exposed to racism and gender discrimination from my colleagues so far. Since I have reported on this issue, both managers and directors have discriminated against. The colleague's manager and HR department should know the fact of sexism, but nothing happened, and if things continue to be reported in the future, the situation will be even more serious As I often heard, I felt the air of “protecting men. Nobody protected me as a victim. Google thought it was different.”

“Many complaints were raised from women to the manager, but without any punishment against him, employees continued to be tormented under him.”

“After entering the company, I was disillusioned with Google. In the first year, I witnessed everything I thought I could leave, such as explicit hateful women, tenacious managers, and gas writing .”

“I reported about a N-word joke colleague, but the HR department did nothing.”

“I have been repeatedly discriminated and harassed by my manager for many years since joining the team. There is evidence that the victim is not just me. But nobody feels it is okay to speak up.”

'I have seen many times women employees are neglected, insulted and ignored. As a person who has been on the team for a long time, I proposed to talk to the manager on a one-on-one basis to solve the problem. This left me out of the tech lead role and moved to another team, leaving only women under the manager in question. ''

“When I was on the previous team, I received sexual harassment from Tech Lead. I immediately reported it to the manager, but I was told that I should“ overreact ”and“ get over ”.”

According to Eileen Naughton, vice president of Google HR, “reporting fraud is courageous and we want to provide support and care to employees who raise concerns. All fraud reported to us has been rigorously investigated, and over the past few years we have made it simpler for employees to communicate concerns and increase the transparency of investigations within Google. 'We are moving in a very transparent way of dealing with the problem and what action to take.'

However, in response to Mr. Naughton's remarks, the site said, “It is frustrating to see Google ’s claim that it is fighting discrimination and retaliation. It ’s customary to get rid of, ”says employees.
