One of China’s largest tech companies apologized Monday for “inappropriate actions” in handling the case of a sick employee who claims he was unjustly terminated.
The employee, surnamed Li, had been working as a game developer at NetEase — one of the world’s top players in mobile gaming — for five years before he was fired in September.
In a WeChat post Saturday, Li said his supervisor gave him a D grade for his supposedly mediocre performance.
