Pinterest has agreed to pay $22.5M to settle claims of gender discrimination and retaliation by its former COO Francoise Brougher. Brougher alleged the company maintained a culture of secrecy among top male executives that resulted in her being left out of meetings and decision-making. Soon after she went public with the claims, Pinterest employees staged a walkout in response to the accusations.
What's that, you're starving? Your electricity is out? No no no, we can't help you, we have to give 22.5 million to someone because they were misgendered. Honk honk to the max.
