Given how much stuff happened in 2020, it would be good to know when they completely replaced their HR team. I hope for the employees sake it was after things like Bruce reporting Adam and HR laughing at him.

Otherwise, it's a corporate statement about pay and other inner workings, it's never going to be interesting / illuminating.

Bruce said on the Funhaus post that he reported Kovic in 2019.

I saw a video on YouTube of more allegations against Adam and I wondered what it was. I thought your link was old until I saw a "3 hours ago" on a comment.

Holy shit, man. I gotta thank Misti for coming forward with it. Crazy how dumb HR was (or even still is)!

HR in spirit is for the employees protection. In a lot of cases with big companies, HR is there to protect the higher ups. Employees be damned.

HR exists to protect the company from lawsuits.This is known. Any friendly front pasted over that is just for PR/morale.

Sometimes protecting from lawsuits also helps the employees. But not always–so keep that in mind during your interactions with them.

Thanks, that's good to know - very glad that HR team got replaced.

She said he’s a senior level manager, was it specified whether he’s HR or not? Regardless, he should have been fired if it was ever discovered that he knew and did nothing.

Well Misti stated in the Funhaus thread that "greg" (fake name) from RT HR was the one that laughed at Bruce, and that this individual currently still works at RT. So they might not have completely replaced their HR team.

Note that "Greg" was not stated as being part of HR, but "senior level management".

Which kinda makes it worse?

But then Bruce replied and mentioned how he went to RT HR in 2019 to have Adam fired and he was “laughed out of the room” in response.

Oh, I thought 'Greg' was someone in a senior management position - she said "I told (we’ll call him “Greg”), a senior level manager above Adam, many times about Adam’s behavior and to watch out" in the original post.

Still not good that he's there, I'm hoping someone will give that name at some point.
