  It’s not his secretary, she’s his chief of human resources. It’s essentially her entire job to prevent these kinds of relationships. there are likely legal ramifications and the company is gonna take a hit regardless.

  But that’s not the issue so much as the fact that the CEO then turns to social media to give the most vague apology ever and then starts attacking the general public because a “private moment became public without my consent”. He literally brought his side piece to a public event with cameras broadcasting across the nation and blames everyone else that he got caught.

  It’s honestly pretty scandalous on it’s own, but his reaction is what makes it so delicious.

    Right, I got that wrong. Scandalous makes it sound like it’s more import than it is. Most people sharing these memes had no idea this company existed and are not even thinking about legal ramifications.

    Their reaction in the video is priceless. Lead singer commenting is hilarious. All the other details is the cherry on top.

    I mean do CEOs ever actually take responsibility? Between the golden parachutes and increased salaries no matter how the company is doing, no one should be surprised by this abominations behaviour.

      It’s a startup. He doesn’t get a golden parachute

        Bet you he’s still pocketing enough money to effectively get one regardless. Just because it won’t be millions upon millions of dollars doesn’t magically make lesser pay gaps than fortune 500 execs acceptable.

    I’m totally OOTL on this. Saw the video linked here and was trying to find the CEOs statement but what keeps coming up is the company is now saying that his response was “fake” 🙄🙄

    I can’t find what the origin of the “fake” statement was though. This Mirror article(yeah; I know) just says it “emerged online”.

  Turns out he was a CEO and that was his secretary (tail as old as time).

  The infidelity is one thing but no need to insult her over her older age. /s

  No it wasn’t. She’s the CPO, Chief People Officer. Basically head of HR. Where did you get the idea she was a secretary?

    What else would a woman be doing in the C-suite?

      Some of those women secretaries have both MBAs and JDs and are running the business while the c suite farts around all day.

      The person who takes the minutes of the meetings controls the direction of the organization.
