    Surely there’s an option between “drop major client” and “punish the person pointing out problems”

        It didn’t have to. You only expect it to because there’s a history of companies being shitty.

        Not only will they fire her, they will also be less willing to hire other Palestinians in the future.

        I don’t know about Microsoft but a FAANG company I worked for had very well documented means of raising ethical or legal issues within the company. She just violated her employment contract and possibly her NDA with the company by doing this.

        I don’t mean to say she is right/wrong. It is just that she did not follow the guidelines of the company she works for. Therefore she will be fired even if she is right/wrong.

      So a choice between money and ethics.
      There is never any question which one companies choose.
      Certainly not the one with a carreer in scumbaggery.
