BrewDog: yet another hip company using 'rebel' language to sell its stuff

[editor]

Point to where I accused you of lying or I’ll accept an apology.

You've accused me of posting up 'manufactured outrage' - which is lying - so don't play the smartarse.

In that case he's accusing me of posting up manufactured outrage too. It's strange how the multiple posters of the previous page have become only you now

You should say sorry to Magnus for accusing him of saying something he hadn't. But we both know that won't happen.

I bet they're ravaged with grief about it too.

Their social media marketing strategist is going spare I'll bet... Well probably not.

Still might as well slag them off here as anywhere...

Where did I single you out?

Strange because here you are engaging with me on that very topic:

BrewDog: yet another hip company using 'rebel' language to sell its stuff

Thanks for not attempting to understand anything in favour of making it fit to suit. If that was a threat I can take It because you’re simply inventing stuff. You're a joke. I've seen many a thread where you've been ground down and then you whimper "yeah, I can be a wind up merchant, but it's...

But are you now saying that you agree that my criticisms and comments about Brewdog are all valid and not 'manufactured', including the ones where I challenge your particular take on what people think Sad AF means?

OK, great. Thanks.

Have you managed to find where I accused you of lying yet?

So you don't think I've posted anything that you would describe as 'manufactured outrage' and all the points I've raised are entirely valid? In which case apologies.

Just listen to the bullying cunt:

Some of the allegations will be revisited in a BBC documentary, Disclosure: The Truth About BrewDog, due to air on Monday evening.

But in fresh posts on BrewDog’s “Equity for Punks” forum, the company’s chief executive, James Watt, appeared to attempt to warn sources who gave evidence to the BBC that their identities could be exposed.

In the forum, which is seen by investors and some staff, he said: “All of this is very, very likely to end up in court.”

He said the BBC “will likely have told sources that their identity will remain anonymous”. But he said anonymity “can never be guaranteed” and a court could order the BBC to name former staff who contributed to the programme.

“If anyone is in any way concerned by this, it is not too late to withdraw your consent,” he said.

A spokesperson for the Unite trade union criticised Watt’s comments. “Any attempt to intimidate current and former workers taking a stand on systemic mistreatment will not be tolerated,” said Bryan Simpson, an industrial organiser for Unite Hospitality. “We will represent all Unite members fully against efforts by a multimillionaire to silence them.”

Where's the other founder in all of this? It's only ever James Watt making comments and statements. Where's the oversight on James Watt and his intimidatory tactics?

What a massive bullying cunt.

Or as the pro-business fanboys on here might say...Perfectly logical step in corporate reputation management that protects the brand, the profitability and ultimate rewards to their "equity punks".

There, that's saved them the bother of their dreary trolling.

Well, this is news I am sure we will all find highly surprising - Brewdog chief James Watt accused of inappropriate behaviour

Nothing new there then.

 

[equationgirl]

Shocked, I tell you shocked.

Who would have thought a company with a culture of bullying and intimidation had a CEO who likes to perpetuate intimidation.

Committed to changing his management style mon derriere.

Come for the sexist banter, stay for the psychoanalysis, this thread has it all.

It's gems like this that made me realise how much I'd missed this place

Mr Watt is not a happy man tonight.

Good! I’m only half way through so far and they have shown evidence to back everything up (we’re not into the appalling treatment of staff yet). They really have taken their ‘punk’ investors for a fucking ride. They should be furious but I guess a lot of them will still convince themselves the boys are geniuses as they run off with the money.

Oh dear, how sad, never mind.
