Indeed is Banning Customers Because of Their Politics

In my interview with Andrew Crapuchettes, CEO of RedBalloon, I found out that Indeed.com was banning customers because of their politics. Wow! We also discussed how politics was impacting the workplace and how it was likely to get worse with a Presidential election pending.

We also touched on the following:

  • Should business owners be telling their workers how to vote? When did American flags in the office become offensive?
  • What is the proper way to discriminate in your hiring practices?
  • Without a doubt, some listeners will be offended by the commentary in this episode. Are you one of them? Tune in to find out.
