From CNET: Several Amazon employees say they've been threatened with termination for talking publicly about their climate change campaign.
Amazon Employees for Climate Justice, an activist group within Amazon that started in late 2018, said in a statement Thursday that four of its members were targeted by the human resources and legal departments at Amazon for speaking out publicly, including to the press. In two cases, employees received followup emails threatening firings if they continued to talk publicly, the group said.
In the group's statement, several employees called out the company for trying to quiet them.
"This is not the time to silence those who are speaking out," said Maren Costa, an Amazon user experience principal designer who says she was threatened with termination for talking to The Washington Post, which is owned by Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos.
