Oracle - in the Dark?
Oracle - in the Dark?
I found this article about Oracle and sexual harrassment especially interesting. I'll just give you the high points; you can read the whole thing.
And the kicker.
Oh, I get it. Predict the future and stop it from happening. Oracle...yeah.
My bad.

PALO ALTO, Calif. (Reuters) - An Indian programmer at Oracle Corp. (ORCL.O)
has sued her Indian male supervisor and the world's No. 2 software maker for
sexual harassment, claiming the man forced her into sex by telling her she
needed to "learn the art of pleasing the American manager."
-
In the lawsuit filed July 18 in California's Alameda County Superior Court,
the plaintiff charged that her supervisor, Mahesh Anand, forced her to
perform oral sex in Oracle's San Mateo, California offices, in his car and
at her home when her husband was away. Anand has since left the company.
And the kicker.
-
The lawsuit said that Oracle knew or should have known of the different
cultural and legal context in which Anand was used to working in India,
where managers can often exert unfettered power over their female
subordinates.
Oh, I get it. Predict the future and stop it from happening. Oracle...yeah.
