This I think illustrates nicely how privileged and out of touch Facebook engineers are.

---

I demand the right to protest my own employer. Facebook: Sure

I demand the right to take unplanned time off to protest even if it disrupts operations. Facebook: Sure

I demand to post my feelings on my company email autoreply so other employees and customers are informed of my opinion via company resources. Facebook: Sure.

I demand to get paid for my time off. Facebook: Sure - we give you lots of generous PTO and don't really track you that carefully in terms of hours worked.

I demand to get paid for my unplanned time designed to disrupt operations to protest my employers actions and post my feelings on company email including communication with customers / partners and get paid for this WITHOUT using PTO (but as regularly working hours). Facebook: Sure!!

Wow!!

I would say they’re very in touch if they can successfully walkout without any repercussions. They seem to know they have the upper hand right now and have the power to influence the company.
