People make mistakes; they seem to get a lot of other things right, so maybe the relationship is salvageable - and all he needs is some time off.

>Doesn't appear so. They did get an HR person, but an experienced one? Not a chance. No experienced HR person would have let any of that get as far as it got. That HR person should probably be put on leave or be fired as well.

Jeez. They hired HR in January; the company has 240 employees many of whom remote. Based on her story, Julie Horvath's relationship was already poisoned by the time they hired this HR person.

The screwups were bad but I doubt GH culture is unfixable.

People make mistakes, but as far as it appears, this was a colossal failure of leadership.
