What started as criticism over errors in recent YouTube videos has escalated into allegations of sexual harassment, prompting the company to hire an outside investigator. (www.theverge.com)

Linus Media Group CEO Terren Tong also responded via email, saying he was “shocked at the allegations and the company described” in Reeve’s posts. He went on to note that “as part of this process, beyond an internal review we will also be hiring an outside investigator to look into the allegations and will commit to publish the findings and implementing any corrective actions that may arise because of this.”

The more I read about LMG, the more the structure of the company looks like a mob.

There is one guy with his wife at the top of the pyramid. The CEO and others are below. If the top of the pyramid has what it ask for, nobody will care about what's happening.

That's how a lot of small businesses operate, unfortunately.

That's how companies are structured. What you want staff to be higher up the chain of command and CEOs I'm not quite sure what you're asking for

I mean... Yeah? CEOs suck if you've been paying attention. Most "chains of command" are just privileged people with connections. Then you have the lower management (let's be real fuck middle management they're almost always useless) and workers doing the actual labor and making the least. That always feels stupid to me 🤷‍♀️
