I looked into this because I wanted to know if it is hurt feefees or something real.

There are surely lots of accusations about hurt feefees, but overall Riot Games fucked up


Plenty of bullshit accusations, but ultimately,

Someone made a complain to HR confidentially and HR reported to the manager.

Someone undertook the role of a manager that left. Manager made 160k GBP whereas that someone did not see a pay increase for months. Ultimately after several months, the role was given to someone else.

female workers had been sexually objectified, with an email chain that rated the company's "hottest women employees" and a thread that referred to one woman as being a good target to sleep with and not call again
one of Riot's co-founders had used the phrase "no doesn't necessarily mean no" as a slogan during a company meeting
female staff had been regularly belittled by supervisors whose alleged comments had included: "Her kids and husband must really miss her while she was at work," and: "She's shrill"
unsolicited images of male genitalia had been shown to workers by their bosses and colleagues
women had been required to take part in online games where they were "routinely harassed and demeaned" by others

Ms Negron alleges that while earning $56,000 (£42,500) she had been asked to take on the duties of a former manager who had earned about $160,000.

She said that during the six months for which she had taken on the responsibilities involved she had not received a salary increase nor had she ever been interviewed for the manager's post - which was eventually given to a succession of three men.

After further setbacks, she said, she had left after realising Riot would never promote her or pay her a fair salary for the roles it had expected her to carry out.

Ms McCracken alleges that she had spoken in confidence to the company's human resources department about a supervisor who made sexist hiring decisions, only for the manager to reveal he had been informed she had made the complaint.

Ms McCracken said that in a separate role she had later been falsely accused of showing people pictures of another Riot executive at a strip club and of uploading naked images of him to the dark web.

This led to a situation, she claims, in which she had missed out on a promotion and faced a "dire future" at the company as a result.

The two women now want the Californian courts to let the case go before a jury.
