Levi's said it didn't force out brand president Jennifer Sey amid the executive's outspokenness on COVID-19 related school closures in California.
"Today, Levi Strauss & Co. announced management changes affecting our executive leadership team. Seth Ellison, executive vice president and chief commercial officer will assume responsibility as the Levi’s brand president on an interim basis in addition to his commercial duties, replacing Jen Sey, who resigned from the company. LS&Co. has initiated a search for a new Levi’s® brand president, an opportunity to lead one of the world’s best known and most respected consumer brands," a Levi's spokesperson told Yahoo Finance in an email.
Yahoo Finance also asked Levi's if it has a COVID-19 vaccine mandate.
"Since the start of the pandemic, our priority has always been the health and well-being of our employees and our customers, and one of our principles has been that we will follow all local laws and ordinances. We strongly encourage employees to receive COVID vaccinations. For our San Francisco corporate offices people are coming to do essential work, and we return to hybrid work later this month," the spokesperson added.

it’s early...creeper=freeper or more keyboard nonsense from apple
Keep in mind, while this is going on, Hochul in NYS just extended the CoupFlu emergency into March, and NYS is still muzzling publik skrewl kids and allowing private sector employers to muzzle employees.
She spoke out objecting to school closures. That’s a shame because she apparently worked her way up through the ranks.
The founders of Levi’s must be rolling in their graves. Disgusting what has become of that once great working man brand.
She was forced out and turned down $1m so she could speak out about her exit.
Leftists take over organizations by controlling HR. Then they can control who is hired and fired and “training” for things like racism.
Sounds like she was deemed an “imperfect ally” of blacks. Therefore, she had to engage in a Maoist public admission of guilt. She refused to do so. So she was forced out.
She has 4 children that were in SFO public schools and was a very early critic of closing schools and masking children, she admitted to supporting Elizabeth Warren but when she went against the Covid narrative the liberals savagely went after her until Levi’s could not take it anymore and they parted ways, she walked away from a million dollars to shut up and possibly the CEO job
She was 90%-95% woke but Levi’s ran her off because she wasn’t pure enough after she questioned the school closings.
“Sounds like she was deemed an “imperfect ally” of blacks. “
OK, that what I thought but wanted to make sure. You are “FLAWED” and no longer needed by Levi’s. NOW the big question, who will hire her? She is a heavy-hitter in the C-Suite world and CEO material—her numbers at Levi’s are impressive.
If there is any satisfaction/shadenfreude in all of this woketardery to be had, it is in observing the revolution eat its own.
She’s toast now. She spoke our against wokeness.
She’s now “problematic” and her career is over. That’s how it works.
“She’s now “problematic” and her career is over. That’s how it works.”
I want to disagree. This is one to watch because she is a heay-hitter in the c-suite world and they are hard to find. Wokeness or profit? Wokenesss has been the winner so far, but the first major corporation that hires someone like this may open the flood gates and wokeness may drown.
Levi’s, like Woka-Cola, Gillette, and Noosecar, will pay the price for going full WOKE.
I stopped buying Levi’s when they became anti-2nd Amendment. Considering the background of Levi’s company, and who they originally marketed their products, the stance was one of those ultimate absurdities that i couldn’t look past. Carhart jeans were a good replacement up until this winter when they mandated their employees be vaccinated in spite of the government being forced to withdraw such mandates. Not exactly consumer or employee friendly companies. Who needs them. Plenty of others in the market place.
Should have took the million and signed the NDA and laughed at them.

This time, I was called a racist—a strange accusation given that I have two black sons.
This is prima facie evidence that leftist hate is undeterred by reality. Seriously, I can’t think of anything more anti-racist than a committed interracial relationship.
For those all-too willing to dismiss her because "she's still a lib," would you prefer that Freedom's cause flourish by curb-stomping the redpilled curious?
Interesting. I see that same error. Could be nothing. But I consistently get that same one. Also, when I use Siri to say “Tyranny” it will not recognize it. It routinely recognizes it as “Tierney” who was an execrable far left moonbat politician from Massachusetts.
I wonder about these things. Naaaah. They wouldn’t take the time at Apple, Microsoft, Google et al to go to the trouble of manipulating their spell checks or speech recognition for political purposes.
Naaah. They wouldn’t do that. Never.
Some people, apparently not you, have principles.
Sey’s walking away from her million-dollar severance package is the most impressive thing I've seen since that Marine told the truth about Brandon's fiasco in Afghanistan.
Still, while serving as Levi Strauss’ president she did much damage to white Americans.
And she did much damage to black Americans.
The company's policies she advocated did much damage to our country. Until she understands the significance of her larger wrongdoings, she is not a sympathetic figure.
Hopefully Levi's slapping her head will lead to her further growth as a person.
Levi’s is Queer Inc
