Madison on why she quit ( lemmy.ml )

This is worse than the Gamer's Nexus video. The biggest red flag initially wasn't even the bad testing data, it was how overworked the staff were. Clearly employee wellness is not a priority.

She has also confirmed that this Glassdoor review was written by her, with continuing updates on her twitter

Permalink to Glassdoor

Quote from the twitter thread:

I was asked about my sexual history, my boyfriends sexual history, "how I liked to fuck".

I was told that certain issues were "sexual tension" and I should just "take the co-worker out on a coffee date to ease it out"

I was asked to twerk for a co-worker at one point.

I was told I was chunky, fat, ugly, stupid.
I was called "retarded" I was called a "faggot"

Holy shit wtf

I figured it was stressful there, and I always kind of dismissed the dickheads in the community as “the internet being the internet” but it seems it’s WAY worse.

Disappointed with treatment would not recommend

Social Media Coordinator

Former Employee, more than 1 year

X Recommend

O CEO Approval

X Business Outlook

Pros

a lot of talented people

employee bonding activities

Cons

No proper/or explained HR system.

Sexist remarks, coded language, and harassment were common place.

Inappropriate actions, comments, and discussions frequently occurred.

Including discussion about employees bodies, appearance, clothes, and wealth.

Upper/middle management frequently misuse power.

No way to report most incidents without issue, since the HR team was ALSO upper management.

Feedback was consistently harsh and not constructive.

Inappropriate language was commonly used while giving feedback.

Meetings with unbalanced power dynamics were common place.

Gaslighting situations frequently occurred.

Unbiased 3rd parties were never present, or easily able to be requested in these meetings.

Lack of proper communication between management and employees.

Outside ventures frequently frowned upon, or limited by the company.

Advice to Management

Stop dismissing complaints because "everyone is friends here" it's a workplace, not a group hangout session.

Get a proper HR team and take reports of harassment and inappropriate conduct seriously.

Don't dismiss employees complaints.

Man what the fuck kind of attitude is that??

They sound like a bunch of immature misogynistic little pricks.

She picked the right moment to come out with this. I mean, keeping this in for 2 whole years while being under the impression that you're under some NDA, you can only imagine how stressful she must've felt.

I feel really sorry for her and I wish her the best. She's a really cool person.

That's usually how these things work. People see others speaking out against someone, and that gives them the courage that they'll be heard.

It also helps that the current news only does to back up her claims and increase the perceived validity.
