Ex-Linus Tech Tips employee alleges mistreatment and poor conditions: “no one gets a break” - Dexerto

I don't see how this surprises anyone. As soon as the handbook was leaked I just knew it was a shit place. Why? Cause I work at a shit place and they do the same shit. Shitty people rip shitty policies and implement them shittily. Linus doesn't care, he wants profit.

Linus is absolute tech cancer, this just adds on.

None of what this employee posted as a requirement, of their weekly job requirements seems like much of an ask to be quite frank

I replied this in another thread. Which was downvoted…

It really feels like the pitchforks are out. People want blood and don’t care if the allegations are true or not.

Probably mistakes were made, hopefully just innocent mistakes or bad communication. But it really feels like people don’t care. They see LTT doing well and want to tear them down, even if bringing LTT down will be bad for everyone.

I’ve had a disgruntled employee before. Their version of events was very different to how the rest of the team saw it. If something innocent could have been taken badly it was. I’m not saying that happened here. But let’s investigate and presume innocence.

How do we know the employee wasn't toxic?

Has any other employees come forward. I hate exploitive work places but I'm skeptical about these public mud flinging things now. Its like there's a script they all use when let go.

That article was a pain to read with the they/them pronouns I'm all for equality for all but damn, grandmas has rules for a reason
