A Senior Engineer was terminated on February 5, 2021, for violating company policies by downloading and viewing pornographic material from various websites and viewing videos that were stored on a USB storage device connected to his company-owned computer. In addition, the employee repeatedly used this computer for personal shopping, communicating via a personal email account, streaming sporting events, and other activities that were not work-related—both during the workday and in the evening outside of work hours.
