One or the other, or both....be crazy. I suspect plaintiff...her stories detail that others are victims. Where are they?

This is so bizarre, but somehow, I can picture a company doing this. When certain hired trainers come in, their tactics are often unquestioned by the management.
This went on in the 1990’s when related to race sensitivity or other types of mandatory ‘tolerance’ campaigns.

I would think it happens quite a lot nowadays with hired trainers talking about White Privelege.
If true, I hope she cleans up in the courtroom.
A small percentage of people will consider all manner of behavior if they are told it’s a prerequisite to promotion.

This brings to mind Scientology indoctrination and Reverend Sun Yung Moon programs that used to be more common.

Attendees were then allegedly required to take turns standing up to yell about their personal struggles until everyone else in the group “believed” them. The last male participant, another Panda Express employee, reportedly had some difficulty “convincing” the others and as a result, broke down in tears.

“(She) was told to stand up and go to the middle of the room with the male participant, where they were forced to “hug it out” wearing nothing but their underwear,” reads the complaint. “(She) was humiliated but did as she was told.”

I would have been laughing, save for the fact that participants had to pay for four days of this.

Have they lost sight of their primary objective?? Which is to sell somewhat palatable Chinese style food at somewhat reasonable prices in a restaurant setting while turning a profit. Is this a business or a damn cult? I once ate at a Panda Express. Not bad, but it ain't Chinatown

I’ll give her a “Not Guilty” until further evidence is submitted to the judge.

I have attended probably 20 seminars in my business career where the subject was team building/personal growth etc. Some of them were pretty far out there. Nothing like this - even in the 80’s. These people need to be sued to extinction and maybe even charged criminally.

something stinks

I’ve eaten in Panda Express a few times, thought it was good.Nanuet, NY in a big beautiful “outdoor” strip mall. It’s a big concern—good rep as far as I know. It’s astonishing that “Corporate” could think this was a good idea. This BAD publicity WILL get out.
