I'll admit I'm not familiar enough with the company to know the answer to this, but here's my question: how is Monster as an employer? What's their track record on workers rights and fair treatment? I don't think we should be so excited to embrace a company that makes positive gestures that we end up ignoring the moral failings and compromises of said company.
This is why things get messy quickly with companies; if we associate with them for their good works on LGBTQ issues, are we then culpable for their failures on workers issues?
And to be clear, I don't have the answer; I'm genuinely pondering what's the right answer, because it's not obvious to me. I just know the inherent dangers of corporations makes me hesitant to accept their support unwaveringly 🤷
