Sony faces Lawsuit as 8 female employees alleges S*Xism
Sony's defense argued that no other female workers had made similar comments when Majo lodged a complaint against them. Nevertheless, Sony's case has now been joined by eight more women. Many have already left the company, while others continue to work within.
"When I left sony, I informed the SVP and Manager of HR rachel Ghaadban in the Ranccho Bernarrdo headquarters that systematic sexism towards women was the reason I was leaving. 'I understand,' responded the director of Human Resources. She didn't want to know anything else." Harrington has spent nearly 17 years with Sony. Harrington went on to say that female employees at sony were rarely considered for promotions. The board rarely has female employees as prospects, also during annual appraisal meetings. She indicated that only four of the seventy people under investigation were female. The fact that women have families and children to look after usually came up anytime females were mentioned.
