 Google employees fear the use of the A-word   


After the government investigation over Antitrust, Google employees have been avoiding to discuss the antitrust implications over the company.

A candidate allegedly sent a question - after an interview - asking about the Antitrust implications, and although that did not eliminate him from the process, that question was viewed as inappropriate and certainly affected his prospects with the company.

The fact that insiders are not talking about it is surprising. Google employees are known to be very vocal when they do not agree with some companies moves, but know they are having yearly trainings to avoid getting in trouble with regulators. Some say they just don't care as the Antitrust suit does not affect they daily job, some just say it is fear.
