(OP’s comment)
I’ve been in contact with quite a few LMG employees. Many have given me statements about the abuse and sexual harassment Madison endured while working there.
One of them also gave me a recording of this meeting that was never supposed to be released. This is my proof that I have talked to LMG employees and have sources inside. I post this as verification of that fact.
I cannot out these people or give direct quotes out of fear they will suffer consequences, but I hope they come forward publicly even if it means risking their careers.
I can tell you their accounts match hers. And even go into further detail. One person constantly was mentioned more than others, but she’s not naming names so I won’t either.
She is telling the truth.
This meeting kinda goes along with how she mentioned her being sexually harassed was regarded as he causing drama.
This is a big red flag already. A proper record is needed by any good and fair company.
There is even more concerning part where Linus discussed the order of complaints - first the immediate manager, then Linux/Yvonne, and the only third party HR.
This is big no no for any reputable company. If you feel harassed, you generally go to HR directly, you don’t give managers any information.
Such managers are not equipped with HR related situations and by saying your piece to more people, you’re ensuring that people you complaint about knows that you’re making a complaint and they can use their power and sway you.
This is biggest issue for me in the video which essentially nullified the existence of HR in LMG if they are this far off to employees.
That’s not how it works anywhere I’ve worked, including some very large companies. As a manager, my team Is supposed to come to me first unless they are uncomfortable doing so.
I’m not 100% sure about the companies you worked with, but I’ve to go through a lot of training videos in all my companies I worked with. One theme is consistent - you go to your manager when you’ve work related challenge, but as soon as it comes to sexual harassment, managers are not expected to be equipped in such things and thus approaching the right authority is utmost required.
