What a terrible ordeal for anyone to go through.

Ultimately, it just comes down to the fact that they've never respected her, not just as a woman, but as a human being, to be useful when convenient and ignored when not.

I choose to believe her, because it's something that is all too common in this world, but I don't think the world has to be this way.

Well, time to go write several long winded emails to all of LTTs current/former/prospective sponsors about how to avoid them like the plague.

This is some shit. I'm actually glad I didn't apply to do engineering work there now. I am realizing if this kind of stuff had happened to me I'd likely be fired because I would nip that shit in the bud immediately, if it happened to me or if I had seen it happening to someone else. It's not right.

Yeah that doesn't sound great at all. Must've been hard not to post all of this before, especially with people constantly asking. It seems like suddenly all kinds of issues at LTT boil over at once. They're going to need a change of direction and some well worded apologies in order to win back trust.

Personally I've started favouring boring big companies over cool flashy small companies to work for as well because of this kinda stuff. Having a very informal atmosphere definitely has it's plus sides when all goes well, but when you're in a (relatively) small company there's sometimes also a lack of professionalism all the way to the top. When you start running into problems you might very well run into the situation where nobody really takes your issues seriously, and because the company is small and everyone knows eachother well there's really noone to turn to. At least in big boring companies there seem to be protocols and a bit more distance between HR and the management.

This is crazy. I'm glad she's not working there anymore.

Would someone be kind enough to post as text? I find it difficult to follow the pictures.

Holy shit. I stopped watching about when she quit (not for a reason, the content was just stale) but between this and the recent issues raised by GN o don't think watching LTT is relevant nor even ethical at this point.

It has always been that he is a petty bourgeois shit especially after his take on unionization.

Can we talk about his reverence for Israel as well? That one video and his commentary on it (or maybe lack of) rubbed me the wrong way.

Unsubscribed from all their channels the moment I heard of this. I don't think I'll be returning as a subscriber anytime soon, even if they address and fix this.

I believe Madison.
