Boulevard Brewing Shaken by Harassment Claims
Boulevard Brewing Company’s president and two other top executives have stepped down after accusations that the company ignored claims of sexual harassment.
Jeff Krum, who has led Boulevard since 2016 announced he was leaving the company when a Reddit post was issued by a past employee describing sexual harassment and the company’s lack to address it.
Once Krum stepped down, a group of employees issued a statement on Reddit supporting his departure.
The post read in part;
Today, we returned power to the people.
After years of begrudgingly trudging through a toxic culture and harmful work environment created and cultivated by certain members of our executive team, we finally have had enough. WE are the ones who make this brewery run, and we have become tired of being overruled, bullied, ignored, and utterly misrepresented by inept and insensitive “leaders”. Their lack of accountability and awful missteps this week were the last straw – so today, we raised our voices and our voices were heard.
