Google employees accuse tech giant of mishandling sexual assault case

> Less than a year after it promised to improve its response to sexual misconduct within the company, Google has recently been accused of mishandling a rape case.

> On May 28, 2021, at roughly 4:00 am, Jessica was staying in a house with 3 of her Google co-workers, when one of them raped her. This led to a spiral of events involving multiple suicide attempts, extensive medical care bills, and legal fees.

> “Jessica hasn’t been paid while Google is taking its sweet time investigating,” pointed out fellow Googler Rob Ruenes on Twitter.

> Even before Jessica Tao’s story was made public, though, in April 2021 over 2,000 Alphabet workers publicly signed a letter calling the company out for protecting harassers, stating that it still does not side with those who face harassment in the workplace.

Google still seems to be struggling with these sexual harassment cases - even with it's promises to improve.
