They said that they want to represent all staff
who are discriminated against because of
their perceived conservative political views,
the gender of men and their Caucasian race.
James Damore, who was fired last year
because the controversial memo, was behind
the demand. This memo argued that only few
women who get job in the company because

women
Damore and David Gudeman, another former
engineer at that company, filed a lawsuit at
the Santa Clara High Court in California
A Google spokesman said they hoped to
defend themselves from Damore's lawsuit in
court.
Damore and Gudeman claimed in their
lawsuit that Google employs women with a
minority quota. They accused the company
of failing to protect employees with
conservative views, including supporting US
President Donald Trump
Their demands said that people are openly
threatened and harassement and retaliation at
the company, which they described as
"ideological echo chamber".
Damore's memos led to a fierce debate about
freedom of speech at work and diversity in
Silicon Valley. Memo was focussing on the
Memo fokus pada perbedaan biologis yang
dirasakan antara lelaki dan perempuan
terbukti sangat kontroversial.
Dalam tuntutan hukum tersebut, Damore
mengatakan memo itu dimaksudkan untuk
tetap internal dan telah ditulis sebagai
tanggapan atas permintaan umpan balik dari
pertemuan puncak keragaman dan inklusi
yang dihadirinya.
Ketika Damore kehilangan pekerjaannya,
CEO Google Sundar Pichai mengatakan,
bagian dari memo itu melanggar kode etik
perusahaan dan menekankan pada stereotip
gender yang merugikan di tempat kerja
Namun, Damore mengatakan bahwa dia telah
menerima banyak pesan pribadi dari sesama
Karyawan Google yang mengungkapkan rasa
terima kasih mereka karena telah berbicara.

hijaukan oleh tiga perempuan yang biasa
bekerja di Google. Mereka menuduh
perusahaan menggaji lebih sedikit
dibandingkan lelaki untuk pekerjaan yang
sebanding. Ketiganya telah dipecat bulan
lalu.

men and women has proved highly
controversial.
In the lawsuit, Damore said the memo
intended to remain internal and had been
written in response to requests for feedback
from the diversity and inclusion summit he
attended.
When Damore lost his job, Google CEO
Sundar Pichai said, part of the memo violated
the company's code of ethics and emphasized
the adverse gender stereotypes in the
workplace
However, Damore said that he has received
many personal messages from fellow
Googlers who expressed their gratitude for
having spoken.

by three women who used to work at Google.

men for comparable jobs. All three of them
have been sacked last month.
