I was very good at my job and Google has acknowledged this. My last three performance reviews have gone, 4/5 stars (“strongly exceeds” in Google internal language) , 4/5 stars, 5/5 stars (“superb” in internal language, and to give some context to this: only 2% of Google workers get 5/5 rating each review cycle). Part of what makes me a great fit for Google is that the company is always telling us to take initiative to deliver high-impact work. Recently Google was forced to post a list of rights that we have in the workplace. Google is resorting to firing those of us who organize and assert our collective voice because it is afraid.
