Well the walkouts weren't confined to the Bay Area so there's something wrong with Google entirely. But Google should flex it's muscle and fire everyone who walked out, or reassign them to a window-less office making copies all day long, or pretty much be at the mercy of these idiots every time they want to virtue signal.

1. An end to forced arbitration in cases of harassment and discrimination for all current and future employees.
Forced arbitration refers to the policy of companies who only allow their employees the right to solve disputes via processes of internal arbitration.

This is what I don't understand. These protesters want to take harassment and discrimination claims to civil court, but they don't seem to understand how hard, costly and time consuming these cases would be to litigate. Especially for he-said/she-said cases, or "credible" (vague) accusations.
Do they not understand that the women alleging harassment/discrimination will be under the microscope and Defense lawyers will get psych evaluations, private investigators to dig dirt, bring up sexual history and discredit it her at every turn? That "believe all women" only exists in the media but when it comes down to litigation, it's a scorched earth campaign?
But Google should give them that option and then have their legal team bury them in discovery motions, and subpeona psych evaluations for the women alleging harassment and bring the hammer down on these cases.
