In a series of screenshots from 2015 onwards provided to Breitbart News by a verified Google employee, individuals described as left-wing Google management employees can be seen discussing the ways they punish their colleagues both inside and out of the company.

"While Google appears to be doing very little to quell the hostile voices that exists inside the company, I want those hostile voices to know: I will never, ever hire hire/transfer you onto my team. Ever. I don't care if you are perfect fit of technically excellent or whatever," declared former employee Adam Fletcher in a post on Google's internal, staff-only Google+ network: "Internal Plus." "I will actively not work with you, even to the point where your team or product is impacted by this decision. I'll communicate why to your manager if it comes up."

"You're being blacklisted by people at companies outside of Google," he continued. "You might not have been aware of this, but people know, people talk. There are always social consequences."
