I always thought LTT was shit and never gave them traffic. Glad my spider senses are working. I’m so sorry for her.

I've read this all the way through now and this is just crazy to me. I honestly expected LTT to give too much work to their employees and have tight deadlines. I've thought that for years. However I'd never think that it was this bad. From verbal assault to sexual assault. It's just way worse than I thought

Is anyone surprised? Pretty obvious on the way that guy acts he's someone to avoid at all costs if not just for being annoying.

I'm more inclined to trust this account than I am with others because there's a lot of things she mentioned which are quite synonymous with the 'tech bro' industry:

My work was called "dogshit" I was called "incompetent". When I would reach out to managers and try to get help with these situations, I would be told to "put on my big girl pants" and be "more assertive".

However, I will withhold my judgement until I hear both sides of the story like always. I also don't know why she didn't press criminal charges, I'm sure sexual assault is a crime in Canada and you won't have to pay legal fees like she mentioned towards the end. And one more thing, she should have mentioned these "managers", "certain members", and alleged sex offenders by name.

I haven't watched an LTT video in a year, the content just isn't as good.
