I always figured LTT was a boy's club, considering how few female employees they have, but I had no idea the environment was that bad. Rather naive of me, tbh.

Ugh, I don't think I can continue watching anything from LTT anymore. 😭 I hope Madison is doing better these days.

Edit: I've zero issues blocking bad actors. =)

It's a lot of techies and IT guys. Sadly it's basically expected that there will be a toxic environment for women. It's HR's job to put a stop to that shit so the company does not get sued. However, when the boss' wife is the head of HR and the boss is the one allowing the toxic environment, it gets swept under the rug until it becomes a huge issue.
