Senior employee previously reported on a manager's inappropriate behaviour towards clients and colleagues
A senior Google UK employee is accusing the tech giant of retaliation, claiming she was made redundant after blowing the whistle on a manager's inappropriate behaviour at work, according to reports.
The employee, who worked as a senior industry head in Google's UK Sales and Agencies team, claimed that she was subjected to a "relentless campaign of retaliation" after her complaint, the BBC reported, citing court documents.
According to the report, the employee said she was given "little choice" but to swap her successful client account with a failing one, which left her vulnerable to redundancy.
She further claimed that she was demoted to a subordinate role on a big internal project, and that her boss tried to downgrade her performance, among other retaliatory claims.
She was made redundant in March 2024 as part of Google UK's reorganisation, but the employee claims it was part of the retaliatory moves against her.
The senior employee also reported that the same manager had allegedly shown another female client a "picture of his wife's vagina" while scrolling through photos on his phone.
