Isn't this the company who tried to force an employee to come into work after she gave birth to a baby that needed to be in the ICU? They attempted to fire her although her position was a remote one.

Ummm.... No?
I read the story a lot differently. I think
she was adopting a baby from NICU and she requested time off for the drive there. Then requested the ability to work remotely (tentatively approved by her manager and later denied by the CEO). She was not a remote worker. She requested the ability and got denied.
Also, she was an employee for less than a year, so the Federal Medical Leave Act didn't protect her job, and the company did the federal minimum requirement. So she quit. After all the backlash because of the online community, the company ended up changing their policy. Also, the company has only like 13-32 employees. So these changes to their policy is pretty drastic compared to other companies. And if they had made an exception to her, they have to do it for everybody or risk getting in trouble. With $14 million in revenue, they are considered a small business with tight margins.
Wonder how much this hurt the rest of the employees left behind...
