No point telling others where you work Not even your friends. Only a vague description is fine enough, as there's no point saying more. I legit see zero upsides of doing so.
Of course there are cases where it's necessary to give that info. But otherwise, the risks vastly outweigh any benefit. Especially if they know any already sensitive info about you. Never know when a mutual can go sour. And no one really cares what specific company you work for anyway, for the most part. People are only a tad more interested in the industry you're in.
Not saying recent story was true or anything, think there would need be more evidence. But in case a similar like situation happens.
