As a former Googler, I'm curious what you are referring to by this:

> encouraged its employees to participate in 'woke' culture.

They know nothing about Google culture. What they know is from HN threads and The Intercept.

People didn't get fired for participating in left wing activism on the job before, but now they are. I'm not sure if it counts as "encouraging 'woke' culture", but most companies would have put a stop to it way earlier.
