None of this is surprising to me at all. I’ve been seeing hints of a toxic ‘hustle’ mindset in their videos for quite some time and have commented as much on the videos. I’ve worked in environments just like this and once you’ve lived it it’s easy af to spot.
Linus probably says ‘I don’t ask anything of anyone that I don’t expect of myself’ and then goes on to expect someone making 50k to put in as much time and effort as he did when first starting LTT/LMG.
I think one of her friends leaked the sexual harassment allegations a while back cause I distinctly remember hearing about it. I think it got quickly swept under the rug win some talk of an NDA. regardless I’m glad it’s in the light now.
It’s absolutely bonkers how basically every scandal in the tech industry has at least an element of sexual harassment. Really feels like a lot of guys in the industry have problematic feelings towards women (probably because of their experience as nerdy teens), and unleash those when they have power and when they don’t think there’ll be any consequences.
U do that when u think its a stupit position that doesnt really mather when u got a company of 10 to 20 people. When u hire lets say 90 poeple it starts to breakdown.

Yeah I wish I could say I’m surprised, but I’m not. This kind of mindset is all too common in tech. I hate it.

You don’t hire your partner as the head of HR unless you want to make sure nothing “gets out”.
Right? How do you go to HR if he harasses you? Yeah so I know y’all live together but like it’s really bad?
Oh I thought she was head of accounting. I didn’t realize HR. Conflict of interest much?
You’re right actually. Point still stands somewhat, the whole thing is fucked
Didn’t Coulton mention HR was his purview?

HR has always been to protect the company, not employees.
Stopped watching years ago because something about the videos were starting to put me off. Now I know.
