Quote from the twitter thread:
I was asked about my sexual history, my boyfriends sexual history, "how I liked to fuck".
I was told that certain issues were "sexual tension" and I should just "take the co-worker out on a coffee date to ease it out"
I was asked to twerk for a co-worker at one point.
I was told I was chunky, fat, ugly, stupid. I was called "retarded" I was called a "removed"
- Holy cow I thought the screenshots currently on this post were the whole thing and I was horrified??
  No, the screenshots are like, half?? THE TAME HALF????
  
  Same.
  I was like, huh seems like she was overworked I guess I wonder why there's so many comments... Oh fuck.
- Holy shit wtf
  I figured it was stressful there, and I always kind of dismissed the dickheads in the community as “the internet being the internet” but it seems it’s WAY worse.
- Man what the fuck kind of attitude is that??
  They sound like a bunch of immature misogynistic little pricks.
  
  Honestly? Considering how some members of the team act on camera I'm willing to believe they are immature misogynistic little pricks
- What the actual fuck. This is starting to sound like FTX
- Someone share the glassdoor post here pretty please? They've got a login wall

  Disappointed with treatment would not recommend
  Social Media Coordinator
  Former Employee, more than 1 year
  X Recommend
  O CEO Approval
  X Business Outlook
  Pros
  a lot of talented people
  employee bonding activities
  Cons
  No proper/or explained HR system.
  Sexist remarks, coded language, and harassment were common place.
  Inappropriate actions, comments, and discussions frequently occurred.
  Including discussion about employees bodies, appearance, clothes, and wealth.
  Upper/middle management frequently misuse power.
  No way to report most incidents without issue, since the HR team was ALSO upper management.
  Feedback was consistently harsh and not constructive.
  Inappropriate language was commonly used while giving feedback.
  Meetings with unbalanced power dynamics were common place.
  Gaslighting situations frequently occurred.
  Unbiased 3rd parties were never present, or easily able to be requested in these meetings.
  Lack of proper communication between management and employees.
  Outside ventures frequently frowned upon, or limited by the company.
  Advice to Management
  Stop dismissing complaints because "everyone is friends here" it's a workplace, not a group hangout session.
  Get a proper HR team and take reports of harassment and inappropriate conduct seriously.
  Don't dismiss employees complaints.
  
  Thank youu!
  
  Just an fyi, you can get past the wall using reader mode in Firefox and
  glassdoor.com^*/gd-hardsell
  in ublock origin's filters. Reader mode is necessary if you want to see full reviews, the ublock rule is to stop the "please login" popup
  
  Imgur blocking VPNs again. Ugh.
- What the actual fuck.
- fucking absolute disgusting.
- 😧
