Read Google's memo warning employees to 'think again'


Google sent employees a memo Wednesday night saying it fired 28 workers for violating company policies and warned others against doing the same.

The company sent an internal memo Wednesday evening, reviewed by Business Insider, explaining its course of action and telling employees to rethink violating its policies when demonstrating. The protests against Google's Project Nimbus contract, which supplies cloud computing services to Israel's government and military, took place outside Google offices in New York City, Sunnyvale, and Seattle, as well as inside the NYC and Sunnyvale locations, when a number of employees staged a sit-in. "They took over office spaces, defaced our property, and physically impeded the work of other Googlers," Google said in the internal memo.
