Workplace Privacy - IBM Hot, Lilly Not

Posted by simoniker on from the dogged-by-the-snoop dept.

Brahmastra writes "Reuters has posted an article about the best and worst companies for workplace privacy, passing on information from the forthcoming issue of Wired Magazine, and IBM comes out on top. How does your workplace compare?" According to the summary, Eli Lilly was rated "the most notorious Big Brother boss", after "...its invasive background checks of workers after Sept. 11, 2001, some of which led to dismissals."

    Ford and Sears aren't based in California or Europe, but have decided to use their data-protection laws as a model, even though they don't have to and could be much bigger wangs if they wanted.

    Frankly, I'm not surprised a major drug company scrutinizes it's employees more closely than Sears does.

    Not to troll or anything, but after Bush Sr. left the CIA in '77, he became director of Eli Lilly.
