I think the former employee probably was on the receiving end of some verbal sexual statements.
However, I find it interesting that in her LTT PC build video she herself said a few verbal sexual things to Linus. I remember she made a sexual innuendo joke to his face about him having small hands. It was funny and no one considered that harassment, but it may have set her up to be on the receiving end of that sort of stuff too. Since it may have set coworker expectations on where her 'ok' 'not ok' line was.
To be clear I'm not defending or excusing any sort of SA if that did occur. I don't know what really happened. I'm just saying she came across in the video as someone you could joke around with, who would be fine with it, and who would give as good as she got. Which may have not been the case and could easy end in accusations of inappropriate behavior
That's always a tricky situation.
I'm on the older side, not to say I'm stuffy or stodgy or anything. I'm ex-military and can make a sailor blush when I'm in the right company. However I'm old-fashioned enough to respect the professional workplace. Perhaps I'll say such things during water cooler talk with one of my best male work friends, but never in a group setting. I've worked with a female for a few years now, she grew up an Army brat, and has said things at work that made ME blush if you can believe it. She has quite an "inappropriate" sense of humor that I find hilarious. However I'm not taking the bait and reciprocating. All it would take is some falling out with her, or someone sensitive to overhear, then I'm in HR saying "yeah but she said that" kind of back and forth. Which might result in us both being fired (our HR dept has a zero tolerance policy for harassment, I've seen good, long-tenured people fired on the spot before for saying stupid things). So I'm not about to even put myself in that situation.
Younger generations today seem to take a more aloof view of these things (the "blokey environment" mentioned earlier) and I agree that's likely at play here.
To be clear, I'm not suggesting she didn't receive some undeserved hurtful and unprofessional comments. That said, based on what I'm hearing, I'm much more inclined to blame the harsh working conditions at LMG (as others have noted) for her misery.
