It’s almost certain they can’t. Motives are notoriously hard to prove, and they can just invent a plausible, legal, lie.
You know whats a really plausible reason? Every tech company in the world is cutting jobs by double digit pecentages.
Its insane to think you have any leverage as a contractor for one of the most bloated companies in the history of man kind. They dont even have customer service, why do they need so many people! Stop reinventing texting and hire people to answer phones!
Don’t know why you’re getting downvoted, but this is the reality.
I didn’t downvote, but I briefly thought about it because their first statement is incorrect. Not factually, but the fact that many tech companies are downsizing isn’t something that you could reasonably argue in court as for why these specific positions were eliminated.
“But your honor, all of the other cool companies are doing it!” isn’t something that would stand up to much scrutiny.
The bit you quoted was what made me pause, because I agree with you.
