I noped out of LTT after the initial reporting. What happened about the allegations of harassment and particular allegations by a former woman employee?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

In summary, as confirmed by the investigation, the allegations made against the team were largely unfounded, misleading, and unfair.

Or more specifically the investigation found that:

Claims of bullying and harassment were not substantiated.

Allegations that sexual harassment were ignored or not addressed were false.

Any concerns that were raised were investigated. Furthermore, from reviewing our history, the investigator is confident that if any other concerns had been raised, we would have investigated them.

There was no evidence of “abuse of power” or retaliation. The individual involved may not have agreed with our decisions or performance feedback, but our actions were for legitimate work-related purposes, and our business reasons were valid.

Allegations of process errors and miscommunication while onboarding this individual were partially substantiated, but the investigator found ample documentary evidence of LMG working to rectify the errors and the individual being treated generously and respectfully. When they had questions, they were responded to and addressed.

Personally I’d wait for more people to complain. There are lots of women working at LMG, no one else has complained.

I’ve see disgruntled workers before lie about lots of stuff. If she’s telling the truth then others would also be saying something.

Makes sense. I guess it was a perfect storm back then that convinced me of something wrong. I used to watch WAN religiously and all the LMG channels, but with all these allegations it made sense to me to not give my viewership until everything is cleared, and it seems we are still far from it?

I mean, it’s hard to proof a negative.

You ought to follow your conscience, but I haven’t found her to be a reliable narrator personally. The results of the investigation were enough for me, at least without further evidence to the contrary.

By memory the external firm they hired did not release documentation of the investigation but did release a statement saying LMG hadn't done the things that were claimed

Honestly though, with this many different claims from such separate entities, I get the feeling there's some evil lurking within at least some core (leader)ship that's probably linked to all this negative coverage?

More directly, Linus kinda acts like a bit of a shit pretty frequently - between a bit of overconfidence that comes off through his general demeanor, and directly calling Steve autistic (allegedly) and definitely using the word 'retarded' as a derogatory (present in the text thread Steve posted), I'd say its pretty clear where the problem lies.

LMG would be a whole lot better off without that L stuck on the front of their name
