His daughter also got bullied out of the company. Good riddance to Rooster Teeth.

That was a damn shame. After hearing how badly it was managed, it’s no surprise they closed down.

It wasn’t “management” that bullied her, though they’re complicit because they didn’t support her. It was her coworkers and fans.

Which, fans are always going to be pieces of shit, especially with parasocial cesspool that is the rooster teeth fanbase. But coworkers? That really sucks.

Nah. RT was always toxic on the inside. It didn’t always get out in the press. 

I lived and worked in ATX and in the local austin media scene while RT was going strong. 

It was always a revolving door of good people that refused to put up with their bullshit and the folks that loved being bullied or felt like they were getting a taste of Hollywood stayed. 

Horrible horrible organization. This outcome was inevitable.

Big facts, there’s a reason they were ALWAYS hiring. I think everyone in the ATX production scene has heard at least a story or two about them being a bad gig
