Ross LaJeunesse, former head of international relations, says he was forced out after reporting discriminatory practices'We can't trust Google': former executive says company has lost its wayA former Google executive claims he was pushed out of the company over his advocacy of human rights, alleging in a public blogpost that the company is increasingly putting profits over people. “In reality, I don’t think we can trust Google,” he told the Guardian. LaJeunesse is the latest high-profile departure for Google, coming after several years of internal strife for the company. In October 2018, tens of thousands of Google employees staged walkouts from offices around the world to protest its policies around sexual harassment. In December 2019, four former Google employees filed federal charges against the company alleging they were fired over organizing for workers’ rights.
