Wow this is dumb. People with a wildly inflated sense of importance destroying something nice. It’s a fucking cooking show and podcast, is this really the place to grind the diversity and unionization axe?
The left eats itself again!

From what I can tell, the union pleas are being ignored. That doesn't make a toxic workplace. It's unfortunate, but it's not toxic.
My management ignored my pleas not to litter iframes all over the app and scrape shitloads of client data, but I don't consider that treatment as "toxic". I also didn't get a raise this year and my pleas were met with "everybody didn't get a raise, that's just the way this year went".
So I'm really struggling to see how making pleas to your management = toxicity. What kind of bullshit victimization is that?
>I’ve personally seen harassing messages sent by PJ to other Organizing Committee members. Heard him denigrate other colleagues. He and I had a meeting, where I begged him simply not to attack the union. He told me he was slacking with Sruthi and that she had “called me a piece of shit and asked him to tell me.” I told him that we weren’t going to disrespect each other. He said “Well let me stop slacking with Sruthi.”
I think that's toxic, don't you?
"The BA staffers’ stories deserve to be told, but to me it’s damaging to have that reporting and storytelling come from two people who have actively and AGGRESSIVELY worked against multiple efforts to diversify Gimlet’s staff & content"
And Gimlet isn't a small company! They were bought for $230 million.
