The Associated Press is reporting that Vonage has been sued yet again. This time it is for religious discrimination.
Between this and the Sprint "roaming" cancellations it clearly appears that many executives and managers in leadership positions of Internet era companies are sorely in need of sensitivity training, and clearly lack any sense of urgency, let alone have a nose or gut for doings what's right.
In my mind Customer Support is a misnomer as it tends to be more defensive than supportive.
Just wanted to provide Vonage's take on this suit, which was missing from the story link Andy provided (I believe the story he provided was updated to include the following quote):
"Vonage has a very diverse workforce and respects the individuality of its employees. We categorically deny the EEOC's contention that Mr. Rosenberg was subjected to religious discrimination and we will vigorously defend this suit," Charlie Sahner, Vonage spokesperson.
Thanks for listening, guys.
