Fired Googler Mark Jen Speaks, Again
First, Mark Jen shared some thoughts about his firing from Google with Jeremy. Second, Jen posted his story on his ninteyninezeroes blog.
Yesterday, he engaged in a Q&A style interview with Juan Carlos Perez of the IDG News Service: Fired Google blogger reflects, moves on.
IDGNS: What did Google tell you about ending your employment there?
Jen: They’ve never given me a straight answer. I’ve requested an official statement or reason as far as why I was terminated, but I wasn’t given any such reason. Of course, it’s well within their rights to refuse to give me a reason. I was an at-will employee in the state of California, so they really don’t need to give me a reason for terminating me. I definitely was surprised at being terminated. It’s a shocking thing.
