Damore on Silicon Valley Groupthink

Harmeet Dhillon

Harmeet K. Dhillon founded Dhillon Law Group in 2006. After many years serving as our Managing Partner, she departed the firm in 2025 to serve as Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights at the U.S. Department of Justice.

According to Damore:

Silicon Valley started as sort of libertarian, open to many ideas. Now, there is a group think. We see many people leaving Silicon Valley because of this. I’ve talked to a few [Google employees and] it seems like it’s gotten even worse – they have doubled down on some of this diversity rhetoric and people are even more afraid now to speak up. Surveys show that about 80% of conservatives now don’t want to talk about anything at work. People are definitely afraid of Google. It’s the most powerful company in the world. But, I think that they are really seeing the push back from conservatives and free thinkers alike.
