A former Google executive has claimed he was fired after speaking out against a toxic, sexist work environment fostered by his female boss. Marco Meier, who worked at the tech giant for nearly 13 years, has filed a lawsuit against Director of Sales Marta Martinez, accusing her of gender-based discrimination and career sabotage. According to Meier, Martinez systematically marginalised and replaced male leaders, pushing him into a deep depression and ultimately ending his career at the company. His claims have ignited a broader conversation about workplace equity for men in so-called progressive companies.
