is anyone listening? https://www.theverge.com/... @alex : a classic dodge https://www.theverge.com/... https://twitter.com/... Nilay Patel / @reckless : Here's @ZoeSchiffer with a deep investigation into long-simmering workplace issues at Mailchimp https://www.theverge.com/... @zoeschiffer : I spoke to 11 current and former Mailchimp employees about allegations of racism and sexism at the company — some as old as 2014. Employees say executives have known about the problems for years, and aren't doing enough to change. https://twitter.com/...
By far, the biggest inequality at Mailchimp isn't within a single department - it's between support and the rest of the company. https://twitter.com/...
Mailchimp needs to address this immediately. Or we will move ourselves and all our clients off it. @Mailchimp #email #marketing https://twitter.com/...
There's A LOT in this piece But I want to highlight this: The support team at Mailchimp is among the most diverse, but the lowest paid. “The support team was treated like the custodians” I have a feeling this is the case across tech, & it needs to stop https://www.theverge.com/..…
.@Mailchimp won't work with ‘adult content’. So much the better. Horrified and disgusted by this, and relieved they turned @makelovenotporn away (we work with @SendGrid) https://twitter.com/...
Extremely disturbed by these stories abut Mailchimp. This has not been my experience in the brooklyn office, on my design team or cross-functional team. Regardless, shit needs to change immediately. https://www.theverge.com/...
My love and support to the ex-employees in this article who spoke about their experiences and the toxicity they received, and to any folks within Mailchimp who are fighting to make things right. ❤️ https://www.theverge.com/...
On Mailchimp's racism and misogyny “The level of toxic masculinity and sexism was unlike anything I experienced in 10+ years in the tech industry” “I questioned myself, I questioned my work, I questioned my ability, because every time you get to the next level, they move the bar”…
I'm livid about these stories: https://www.theverge.com/... I've been lucky to have a good (but by no means perfect) experience working at Mailchimp, but I have no tolerance for my coworkers being treated like this. MC peeps, DM me if you want to talk.
Thank you to my current and former colleagues for speaking up. It makes me sick that this has been tolerated and enabled for so long. I'm glad your voices are finally being heard, and changes need to happen now. https://www.theverge.com/...
