Two weeks after staff at queer dating app Grindr unionized, bosses ordered employees back to the office. Nearly half the app’s workers refused and have been laid off.
have been cracking down on remote work, Grindr’s rollout was particularly abrupt. Employees say Arison announced the new policy over Zoom in August, then quickly ended the meeting before a staffer could finish asking a question. Cortez and another employee say questions posted in Slack afterward were ignored.
Cortez says the cuts disproportionately impacted union supporters—nine out of 11 union organizing committee members were forced out. He says the company disabled the chat feature in Zoom during all-hands meetings in the weeks following the announcement, then restored it after the terminated employees were gone.
None of the roughly eight openly trans employees who would have had to relocate chose to do so, “which shows a disparate impact on a marginalized class of workers,” Robin says.
