Unless he had fucked up in a major way before being hired at Google, I honestly don't get why he wouldn't sign on with another company if he was dissatisfied with his employment at Google. It's not like he's a sales rep or a clerk, there are a number of places who would've gladly hired him or he could've started his own company!

This is the poster child for "change from within" people, in regards to "Mega Corp." and government entities. As amazing of an asset as he might be, I'm sure there are plenty of people chomping at the bit to replace him, thusly prompting Google to boot his ass out. He's truly an idiot for thinking that a memo would honestly help change the social work dynamic of a company that, ultimately, is Leftist and implements very Leftist policies.
