Away CEO Steph Korey has stepped down from her post just days after a damning report exposed the company's 'cutthroat culture'.
Pregnant Korey, who co-founded the travel and lifestyle brand with Jennifer Rubio in 2016, will be replaced by former lululemon executive Stuart Haselden in January.
Korey will remain on the company's Board of Directors as Executive Chairman.
Her decision to step down comes after an investigation by the Verge was published Thursday, in which a number of former employees described a 'toxic' environment at the brand.
They revealed how the company's founders Korey and Rubio worked them to the bone while allegedly underpaying them and asking them not to take time off.

Women should not be CEOs before menopause. They ruin their corporations via PMS syndrome.

“ban on paid leave”??
This article is basically BS. If you go to the underlying article, you can see that the CEO was complaining that two managers of the same team each took a vacation day on the same Monday and customers were left hanging. The CEO then says don’t take vacation days unless you are sure the rest of the team can handle the workload.
I’ve never worked in a company that didn’t have that policy.
An evil man caused this!!!
Women are far more vindictive then men.
A guy might call you an a-hole to your face,
but a woman will destroy you behind your back.
Banning 3 am rants went too far.
Awful news site layout. Good grief, f’g coders.
Girly men will do the same - like Comey.
I should Direct Message this article to Amy Klobuchar.
“See what happens when the top person gets too big for their britches?”
she will blame all this on the fetus and/or drugs and then have it aborted due to stress . ..
100%
If a woman doesn’t want to work with you she won’t. All of a sudden people that used to work with you will start avoiding you so they don’t anger the “queen.”
They will destroy you politically. It doesn’t matter how good you are at your job or how much you have helped them in the past.
“but a woman will destroy you behind your back.”
During my years driving long haul I worked for three different companies. By far the worst experience I had was the one company where I had a woman dispatcher. She was mean, vindictive, backstabbing and prone to fits of temper for no reason.
I only lasted two years with that company because of her.
I think it comes down to their insecurity and feeling they have to prove they are tough, or something. Not all female CEOs, but some. And has nothing to do with their menstrual cycle.
I remember seeing a few months ago that this company signed a letter opposing Georgia’s new abortion ban. Glad to see that the hate and hypocrisy has caught up with them.
Most females are evil, backstabbing, vindictive, insecure bitches when given power. I have met a few great exceptions - but in general - yeesh.
I think the threat of physical violence moderates the behavior of most men. My bosses always knew that if they stepped too far out of line there would be direct consequences.
But that isn’t the only factor. Logic vs. emotion. Both have their place.
On the other hand the new generation of men seem to have more estrogen than most women....
Any man reading the book is likely to come away with the idea that it may be a bad idea to hire women. The authors go into great detail about the tendency of women to take things personally, to hold grudges forever, and to engage in petty vindictiveness.
I’m a White male in a White male dominated profession, so I just try to avoid females in my company and career field. I’m like VP Pence is for my job...
Boss chicks try to prove they’re tougher than guys.
And given the whininess of the modern “male,” maybe they’re right.
My husband had to endure an almost surely psychotic female project manager for 6 months. She was probably undiagnosed with SOMETHING. A few weeks into this mess, I tried to tell him and a few of his male workmates that some women just should not be in upper management. I was shot down with “oh I have had bad male bosses, etc”. Welp....it turned out very different. She was most likely hired because she was a woman, not for any particular amazing management capabilities. She took things personally, bore grudges, and was a flat out bitch who “pounded down and sucked up”. They would have taken any number of terrible male bosses rather than this freaking psycho hose beast.
