On top of the sudden removal of her working arrangements, she suggested certain employees would casually use offensive language while in the office, such as homophobic or racial slurs. She claimed this hate speech was “specifically targeted against people it was supposed to discriminate against,” and that she never saw the employees punished for their actions.<\/p>
Just days before her resignation, this ex-employee also attended a meeting where the team allegedly discussed recruiting “a very beloved Twitch streamer” onto Kick. This streamer is known to be publicly battling cancer, and Melissa alleged a Kick staff member said: “We can get her on [Kick] for a relatively low price because she probably thinks she is going to die soon, and she’ll want to leave more money for her family.”<\/p>
Continuing, she said Kick staff members regularly talked about the streamers they are attempting to sign. She alleged, in one instance, other employees would gloat about signing streamers on a “below market cent rate” to save the company money.<\/p>
