Small startup Basecamp decided to curb political conversations at work. It is not clear whether “conversations” were verbal, around the lunch table or postings on Basecamp social media. Prior to the no political talk blowup, Basecamp was trying to present a worker friendly workplace, shorter work weeks in the summer and paying everyone doing the same job the same money.
A couple of small companies, Redfin and Harmon Brothers LLC, came out supporting Black Lives Matter which has caused them some internal turbulence.
I don’t remember this sort of issue back when I was working. I retired before Facebook or Twitter was invented.
