So, you are complaining that they had immigrants working for them? They are part of the EU free movement region, so that is hardly surprising. Immigrants on the payroll don't change whether or not a company is Swiss.

Were they inside the country? Were also they subject to Swiss laws? Aren't these the things that would make a company Swiss? Even if the company was started by a person that isn't Swiss, I'm pretty sure it is still a Swiss company if it is initially located in Switzerland and governed by Swiss laws.

I am not complaining about the company hiring immigrants and allowing remote work across the Europe. I just haven't seen anything inherently Swiss in it, anything different from any other European company I worked for, that would justify the "Swiss quality" marketing.

Then why would you bring up the nationalities of the folks working there instead of pointing out things about the quality that you find lacking as compared to the advertising?

There wasn't any of that there. The only detail in the complaint was about the non-Swiss folks working there. And I really, really don't understand how it just isn't low-key racism. Could you explain it better for me?
