[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds like an open-and-shut case of sexual harassment.  Is there a problem with a white guy wanting compensation for such?[/quote]

Nobody has said there is.  Right now these are only allegations, though.  It’s not an open-and-shut case until they are substantiated.

It seems a little odd to me that he filed the complaint without getting a notice of right to sue from EEOC first, because he could be waiting 6 months for that before he’s in a position to amend the complaint.  That seems to create a pretty good argument to stay the suit until he’s gotten the notice (or decides not to pursue a Title VII.  Makes me wonder if he’s hoping to get a quick settlement before then.

Per the filing, he has received annual equity awards of “at least $250,000” every year since 2016. If they supposedly fired him for cause, they may have clawed back the unvested portion of the awards.

Regardless, he alleges that he was instructed to fire a subordinate for being a white male in order to make room for a woman on the team. That is an illegal command to give an employee and would have created a personal legal liability for him.[/quote]

Google filed its answer tonight, which denies he received the equity awards he described. [/quote]

Link to their response?[/quote]
