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.”

I'm still not a fan of speaking as if these are small business problems. They ARE NOT "small business" problems. It is a problem of failed management, full stop, regardless of how common or explanable it is.

Yea, startups and groups of "bros" are highly likely to mess things up in this way, but again... It's a basic lack of professionalism and respect for others. That shouldn't be accepted as "bro culture". It's being an immature twat.

Management is a part of that business and as all small businesses grow they hit a point where they deal with this. It's extremely well documented.
