Holly shit! That was terrible. Would be really disappointed to LTT if this turn out to be true. Maybe I should start calling them Linus Touch Tips (the inappropriate one)

I guess you can't say they're "out of touch" anymore...
What she's describing is incredibly awful. That's not your average toxic workplace... I hope she's doing better now.
I would love to think that this stuff isn't true, but considering the red flags given off by Linus in recent weeks and months (his anti-union comments, for example), as well as the allegations made by Naomi Wu, the leaked employee handbook with its questionable contents, as well as the anonymous (ex-)employee describing a hostile work environment on the LTT subreddit some time ago... it kinda just fits, you know?
In any case, let's wait and see how this plays out, but right now it's not looking good for LMG. I don't think they will shut down in any case, but surely something is going to happen.
