    I do think it’s good to create a healthy culture that respects workers, but I don’t understand why being able to fire an employee is a bad thing

    Imagine you’re not allowed to fire people you don’t like who you think are doing a bad job at work

      It’s obviously not forbidden to fire people. You just can’t do it like that, because you woke up grumpy that particular morning. Employees are highly protected in France, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be fired.

      Yeah it’s not all or nothing though. You’re acting like outside the US it’s impossible to fire people. That’s simply not even remotely true.

      Indeed. That still happens. Just you have to have a valid reason to fire them. Not liking someone is a petty reason to fire someone. Not doing their job is another thing altogether.
