That doesn't sound like an unbiased removal of politics from the workplace to me. I think I would be out of the door, too.

Why, do you "assume bad intent" and "make unsubstantiated accusations"? Do you want to, or do you want to work with people that do? I don't think anyone who quits because those "behaviours are not tolerated" will be missed by their former colleagues.

You have just perfectly demonstrated how these new rules can be used to crush even a hint of dissent. I'm out.

I think a few of the things from the quote are troubling because they were phrased so ambiguously the management could interpret them in disingenuous ways that mean you could theoretically push anyone you wanted out of a company. But at this point isn't it just a memo from the CEO and not a formalized SOP? I would hope the SOP would clarify more.

However, I think lots of people wondered why in the quote you included a few things that don't seem to be anything aside from objectively bad, such as "assuming bad intent" and "making unsubstantiated accusations."

How did someone simply asking you about it "crush" you into silence?

In what sense were you crushed by goatinaboat? If somebody publicly disagrees with you, does that mean they have crushed you?
