A CEO is getting a lot of unwanted attention online after an employee is alleged to have leaked a Zoom call of her telling staff members they weren’t getting a bonus. But get this… she generously paid herself $1.2 million on top of her salary last year, bringing her total income to around $5 million. The video has left a lot of people feeling outraged, and rightfully so, as Andi Owen, the CEO and president of US furniture store MillerKnoll, tells staff to “leave pity city” for their complaints.
She further told them that they needed to stop thinking about what they were going to do if they weren’t to receive their bonus. Owen then continued, “Get the damn $26 million,” which is believed to have been the company’s sales target. “Spend your time and your effort thinking about the $26 million we need and not thinking about what you’re going to do if you don’t get a bonus. Alright? Can I get some commitment for that? I would appreciate that.”
