I’m not well versed in California/USA labour laws but does the haste and lack of cause for firings seem like grounds for civil suits?

- rco8786 4y agoCertainly, but the cost of what those inevitably settle for will be far less than keeping the employees on payroll or paying severance.
- ViViDboarder 4y agoCalifornia is At-Will. You can fire for “no reason”. Someone could try to claim your reason was a lie and that it was actually based on discrimination against a protected class though.
- pjc50 4y agoNot all Twitter employees are in California; you generally can't do this in Europe, so it'll be interesting to see how that pans out.
- anonymousab 4y agoMy guess would be either ignoring the problem altogether or "pulling out" of Europe employment-wise and then ignoring any ramifications of that for as long as possible.
- pjc50 4y agoYeah, while twitter does have European business entities e.g. https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/07653064/officers https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/c... , I'm not sure what happens if the subsidiary goes bust or gets shut down before you've finished suing it. Probably have to take the case to Delaware.
