If there is a criminal charge or conviction I think you would be fired in most countries.

This is probably why they called the cops, so they can fire them for an obvious cause.

What would be the crime here? Am I missing something? Protesting is not (or shouldn’t be) against the law, as long as you don’t behave illegally)

Reports seems to indicate that they were arrested for trespassing.

Ah that, yeah they were in the CEOs office. That might be misdemeanor, but is it a felony? Pretty sure you couldn’t be fired for this here.
