vigreux

He was rehired and promoted to CTO, and finally he was having dinner with a bunch of the TomTom founders and executives, including the CMO Corinne Vigreux and her husband the CEO Harold Goddijn.

(I am not exaggerating that if you google tomtom + his name you get pages of unique interviews and articles over many years.) Corinne Vigreux drove him out of his job for speaking out against her intentional slur, when she clearly said and meant it in front of several other people, when she's the one who should have been reported to HR and punished for what she said, not him.

But after the derogatory transphobic bullshit Corinne Vigreux said in front of witnesses, which was clearly in violation of company policy, culture, scientific facts, and just plain human decency, I believe she morally owes TomTom a refund of all the money they spent recruiting and relocating and hiring him twice, as well as all the money they had to spend replacing him.

Especially because the company culture as a whole is definitely not transphobic, and I know current employees with trans children who were also quite shocked to hear about Corinne Vigreux's bigotry.

You can still find o-chem forums with PhD students talking about the manufacturing of research chemicals, but its masked in their own lexicon (an idiot can't just Google "how do i make {insert designer drug of choice}", but you'll find a lot re: "wacker oxidation of foo in bar" or "reductive amination in a Vigreux column").
