Last night, at approximately 2AM ET, a former employee, Madison Reeve, posted a thread on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, accusing Linus Media Group of cultivating a toxic work environment and encouraging a work culture that was detrimental to her health as well as sexual harassment directed at her by Linus Media Group employees.

“I chose to quit my role at LTT because it, and the working environment I was facing, were ruining my mental health,” her statement begins. “My work was called ‘dogshit’ I was called ‘incompetent’. When I would reach out to managers and try to get help with these situations, I would be told to ‘put on my big girl pants’ and be ‘more assertive’.”

Reeve went on to accuse the company of barring her from videos after she reported being “grabbed multiple times in the office” and being told to “calm my tits” and “stop being such a bitch.”

    • The problem is that the video where they explain they are going to work to fix errors has… errors… >.> Then you get things like that video being monetised until they had enough backlash to make them go “oh okay. We wont monetize it then” or something. It’s a big mess and it’s clearly showing that LTT has serious problems.

      • I thought they made a big point about not monetizing the video during the video. With the whole “and now our sponsor…”, “Just kidding” stuff. Was it actually set for YouTube monetization?
