Mailchimp employees have complained about inequality for years is anyone listening?
Behind the claims of sexism and racism at Atlanta’s premier tech startup
Alejandra Luaces had only worked at Mailchimp for four months when she got a surprising anonymous email. “Oliver is in an open marriage and is fair game,” the message read, referring to a senior engineering manager. “Serena also knows so you can ask her to confirm.”
Luaces was not interested in Oliver. She certainly wasn’t interested in asking a female employee about his marriage. As a product operations manager and one of the few Latinx women in the engineering org Luaces was determined to succeed at one of the most prestigious tech companies in Atlanta, according to sources close to the situation.
