Lets take a moment to talk about reddit, and Victoria. I am curious about Victoria's position at reddit. I am reading "director of talent", in her title. Was she paid to work there? was she more then just a mod?  I wonder about this, because director of talent, sounds like an HR position. If Victoria was in a HR position, then i believe her firing would have something to do with the new reddit policy preventing salary negations.  http://www.pbs.org/newshour/rundown/reddit-ceo-ellen-pao-bans-salary-negotiations/ Now, salary negotiations are absurdly important. If you singed up to get a salary, under the impression that you would only be working 45 hours a week, but they have you doing 60, you will want to negotiate a raise as soon as you can.  I believe that the negotiations were removed, not to make the work place equal, but to fuck over employees. They now get paid the same, regardless of how many hours they work, and my guess is that they are working tons of hours now.  And i believe that reddit employees, probably voiced their complaints to her, she brought these complaints up, and was promptly fired for it. This would fit the timeline for when the negotiations were removed... Which may be a violation of California labor laws, because in essence, she has placed a bargaining restriction on her employees. (I am not a lawyer, and not in California, this is just an educated guess) While this may be off topic, its still important to take a moment to look at, because its a scumbagish thing to do, its unethical, and it shines a light to the methods of these sjws.
