I'm more inclined to trust this account than I am with others because there's a lot of things she mentioned which are quite synonymous with the 'tech bro' industry:

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".

However, I will withhold my judgement until I hear both sides of the story like always. I also don't know why she didn't press criminal charges, I'm sure sexual assault is a crime in Canada and you won't have to pay legal fees like she mentioned towards the end. And one more thing, she should have mentioned these "managers", "certain members", and alleged sex offenders by name.

From the first day I got suggested the guy and blocked his channel I never liked the man. Seemed fake and off. Finding out he’s a total asshole clownboy makes sense.

I don't know much about LTT, but companies where you have a preponderance of young white guys, this is invariably the culture. If you're a young white guy, work hard to be sure you're not part of the problem.
