Publicly calling your CEO out like that will generally get you fired. It would be newsworthy if the engineer didn't get released.
> Publicly calling your CEO out like that will generally get you fired. It would be newsworthy if the engineer didn't get released. You can only think that as an unavoidable consequence if you assume the CEO's ego is more important than the company.
Not necessarily more important than the company, but you got my drift perfectly. Many CEOs would get you into Siberia and released over a period of months, quietly. Not this one, and I think everyone knew that ahead of time.
