A typical onboarding process takes weeks or months of paid employee time.
Employees value to a company increases substantially over time due to knowledge of culture, process, etc.
Executives care a lot when company actions cause employees to leave. Human capital is one of the essential ingredients to a successful company.
These things are real money and execs care about the impact on bottom line.
This is typically the most important aspect of an exit interview. In my experience, the employee's reason for leaving is thoroughly examined.
Does "condemning an action" have the same impact?
There have been similar recent public statements such as MS workers about use of AI for the pentagon, FB employees on content, etc..
Simply I mean the best way to support a wrongfully ousted ethicist would be to leave yourself, rather than keep getting paid by the execs who wronged her.
The work of AI ethics - especially in the vein of Timnit Gebru - is essential. My statement, was one of support for her.
The fact that most of these employees could easily get well paying (just not as _ridiculously well paying_) jobs elsewhere to me feels like they are not staying out of necessity, rather they are looking to assuage their conscious through statements like these, and continue collecting their exorbitant pay.
