Boycott the company founders and not the employees

Rant alert : Have some really sensible friends (thought so) and we banter about startup business follies. Now I don’t want to be friends with them. What got to me recently was few of them proudly boycotting people from Byjus, Unacqdemy, upgrad or any of the startup’s who were in news for irregularities/bad culture. I thought this was quite insensitive and cruel. I mean - seriously really - let alone trying to make any changes or raise voices, how many of the employees would have had any knowledge of the unethical practices. They can’t even leave the company because of arsehole holier-than-though leaders will reject the resumes as quick hops. Not at all saying there should be a sympathetic view to them, but a fair chance to everyone is warranted. Why treat the employees as some pariah! Such rotten people and it’s ridiculous they talk about empathy the next min. Everyday we are seeing a new level of downfall of startup’s and way of businesses. Why not change the pseudo intellectual, egomaniacal, elitist clannish attitude that founders/leaders used to exhibit.
