    Quoted from Coindork:

    I am currently self employed so don’t have to worry about this sort of thing anymore. Pretty much done with corporate America.
    That said, before becoming self employed I worked several years in the corporate sector. Many corporate jobs make you sign an employment agreement. In that employment agreement there is often a code of conduct that you agree to.
    I’m not saying this is the case here, but in these cases you have to be careful what you post on social media or any other public place. Right or wrong it’s the employers prerogative, especially if you signed and employment agreement.
    The company I worked for looked at all new hires Facebook, Instagram etc.
    this was in order to “make sure the employees projected what they wanted to be publucally seen as the face of the company”.
    One time I was trying to hire another guy for our division (whom actually turned out to be a great hire) and they called me into an office to review his Facebook account.
    There was one photo of him at a VNV Nation concert with his fist in the air rocking out in the audience. They asked me the question “are you sure you want this to be the face of the company”?
    I replied with “look, if your not going to hire him over that, you might as well fire me. I was at the same concert”.
    They pretty much let it go after that and we hired him based on my recommendation.
    If it were up to the regular hire process he would have never gotten that job because of one concert photo on his Facebook page.

    I’m not sure how many people are in the marketing industry here, but due to Sarbannes-Oxley and concerns about insider trading, there are often really crazy rules about personal social media use in marketing that go beyond “just don’t say anything offensive”. At my last job, I not only couldn’t post things about my company and our competitors; I also couldn’t post about any retailers we worked with, not even to say that I’d gone to Target or needed to stop by Walmart, unless I included a big disclaimer that I worked for Spacely Sprockets and that these were my personal opinions. Because I had access to privileged marketing information that the public doesn’t have, they insisted on a high degree of transparency. At the time, I didn’t want to tell anyone I worked for them, so I had to be super careful about what I posted.

    Even though I work for a privately held company now and we don’t have any strict rules (and even though my investments are pretty much index funds), I still mostly follow those guidelines in what I post, and this situation is a good example why. Just the impression that someone is manipulating a market is enough to set off an annoying investigation, and it’s very rare for a company to want to expose themselves to that risk.
