If the government is out to get you, then yeah you're screwed.
If it's you against a company - then you typically have more protections than I think the typical western reader would expect.
I personally know people that had issues firing others at their company as well as people that got compensation when fired. Sure there are loopholes and people still get screwed a lot, but on the whole companies are generally apprehensive to fire employees and it's not totally the wild west
In the current situation, it very much sounds like it's people vs. Foxconn and that in the end people got their compensation.
You can argue that the situation was instigated by government policies, but that's sorta besides the point
