Maybe read the article?

> Google soon nixed the board.

> Whittaker said her Google manager told her to "abandon [her] work on AI ethics" and blocked a request to transfer internally.

She asked to be moved to RMI. No hiring manager in RMI wanted her on their team, and she didn't complete the ladder transfer process.

Instead demanding a forced transfer.

Could be wrong here, but that's how it was presented internally by Meredith herself.

They weren't. Meredith was employed full time at Google and using all of that time to work on AI Now. It was her work time.
