I agree, Aimee, that it’s important that you serve as a voice for diversity in an organization that clearly needs to listen.

However, I would caution you not to normalize HR negligence. The inaction that Susan Fowler describes does not sound like it’s within the standard range of HR responses. Also, while I’m very sorry that you had a creepy experience at Google (full disclaimer: I’m an engineer at Google myself), it does sound like Google HR reacted appropriately: The moment they caught wind that something happened, they gathered data and took action (within a week, IIUC) by revoking the offender’s ability to be an intern manager.

No two people will have the same experience in the same organization, so it is unsurprising that within a large company, one woman can experience egregious sexual harassment while another’s experience will be just fine. The reaction, however, is what defines the company, and I believe Uber is getting a chance to define itself.
