Did you know Meta Curtails Internal Criticism Linked to Appointment of Dana White To its Board of Directors

 

Tech giant Meta is working to curtain criticism it received within its own company after CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s shocking decision to add Dana White to its board of directors.

As reported by 404 Media recently, the company was left with no choice but to delete an array of comments that were left behind by its own employees on Workplace. The latter is the name given to a place that only employees of Facebook can access.

Many comments had to do with video footage from the past that displayed Dana White using violence against his own wife at an NYE party. Other than that, the fact that he’s always been a pro-Trump supporter and a very outspoken one had some people stunned.

Even though he was never charged for the abuse caught on camera, employees feel his leading position on the board was nothing less than a joke. One worker stated ‘W’ white another questioned the motives behind the shocking appointment. Let’s not forget how he’s a known UFC fighter who was found guilty of assault by a civil court after one woman accused him of abuse in 2018.

Others were not so happy with the company’s decision and the array of celebratory comments published by a few colleagues. Some went as far as to express dismay about the fact that he was caught on camera assaulting a woman and yet others were too busy congratulating him.

Some went as far as to claim that people were so naive to not know his background and if they did, they chose to ignore the truth as they feared for their jobs in the company. They slammed Meta for the act who supposed his assault behavior by appointing him a leading position.

At the start, Meta and Google became some popular spots for enabling free discussions. They thought it would be in the firm’s favor. Today, it’s a whole different scenario where such criticism can really harm the company’s image as it is right now. We’ve previously seen people protesting on different issues.

On multiple occasions, Meta was left with no choice but to step in and remind employees that while their opinions were certainly respected, this was a place to be respectful. They were reminded to communicate better and think twice before commenting on internal matters such as those about board members.
