The latest caught in this web is CBS News.
Reports broke on Monday that CBS News co-president Neeraj Khemlani was out.
He’s Done
From the moment Khemlani was brought on board about two years ago, he was surrounded by controversy.
He was tasked with getting the budget in line when he first started.
That, of course, led to conflict with some of the major personalities at the network.
There were also rumors that he was rather aggressive when it came to both women and minority employees.
Khemlani sent a memo to staffers announcing his resignation.
He stated, “We maintained the #1 position of our iconic weekend programs, successfully developed and launched business plans to grow digital revenue that will sustain CBS News for the next generation, and elevated and promoted so many of the people who work here day after day to deliver on our journalistic mission.
“I’m so proud of what all of you have accomplished — the scores of journalistic wins, the superb storytelling, the creativity that enhanced every aspect of our programming — that has put this division on a stronger path forward.”
According to the report, after several complaints were filed against him, HR started to take a look, and it was obviously now happy with what it saw.
He had apparently targeted CFO Stacey Branson and another female executive during a recent meeting, blowing up on both of them during a recent staff meeting.
These big bosses better learn quickly that the days of screaming and intimidation are over in the workplace.
