MillerKnoll CEO tells staff who are worried about bonuses to 'leave Pity City'

Andi Owen, CEO of office furniture company MillerKnoll, was asked in a recent video town hall about how workers should stay motivated if they don’t get a bonus. A clip of the video began circulating this week, sparking a backlash on social media. Owen’s reply began with a calm encouragement to staff to “focus on the things you can control,” such as providing excellent customer service. “Treat each other well. Be kind. Be respectful,” she said. “Lead by example.

” The comments came at the end of a 75-minute meeting, and MillerKnoll said it was taken out of context. “Andi fiercely believes in this team and all we can accomplish together, and will not be dissuaded by a 90-second clip taken out of context and posted on social media,” said Kris Marubio, a spokesperson for the company. MillerKnoll has not yet decided bonus payouts for staff, including Owen, as its fiscal year ends in May.

Real news you won’t find on CNN! Hunter Biden's IRS whistleblower news draws intense Twitter backlash: 'Coverup of Biden family corruption'

The irony is that I’m sure a lot of bosses think and operate like this.

Love working for myself. No boss. No BS.

This person does not deserve to be the boss

Wait, is this supposed to be national news?

Lies lies all you do is fake news 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🖕🤨🖕🤨🖕🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

How is this national news?

Such a boss makes employees feel cold

How about she leave some of the 4 mil bonus for the employees.

Why are there always manicured shelves behind them?

I believe there’s more context that calling this a “pep talk” to people “worried about bonuses” CNN…

HiddenSecretsInGita क्या काल का रूप इतना भयंकर है कि जिसे देखकर अर्जुन जैसा योद्धा भी कांपने लगा। क्या यही कारण है कि पवित्र गीता जी अध्याय 7 श्लोक 25 के अनुसार काल ने अव्यक्त रहने की प्रतिज्ञा की। अवश्य पढ़ें पवित्र पुस्तक ज्ञान गंगा। और जानें गूढ़ रहस्य।

I dont see a problem here, Ive heard CEOs say way more controversial things. Is this because shes a woman? Like, a real one?

What a joke.. woke city.. how about you work harder instead of whining about anything and everything. CEO should be praised

Lol… work in the medical field for like a day and get back to me.

She, like many American bosses is a barbarian and a savage.

The sentiment is correct. The execution is simply pitiful.

Wow. That's a pretty epic example of someone lacking self-awareness. Pro-tip: If you're a multi-millionaire and your workers are worried about how they're going to pay for their rent, food, mortgages & utilities, you are not in a position to accuse them of unjustified self-pity.

They weren’t worried, they were angry. Her statement was a self evident example of incompetence. It made it much worse.

Thr same beeesh that took 6M bonus 🙄

Company sounds like a ponzi scheme

In 2022, Owen took home nearly $5 million in compensation… meanwhile, the median salary for the employees is just $44,000 🤬🤬🤬

I read that she collected her 6.4m bonus…

Easy to “leave pity city” when you are making millions!

Translation: Millionaire tells people who are struggling to pay rent to 'walk it off.'

This will not end well for her. Pity party of one please.

While she pockets a mere $6.4M in her own bonuses. Internet, ruin her.

So words and reputation that spotlights on their darkness is getting to them !!! Keep it going

She’d better be fired by the end of the week

“Let them eat cake.”

As soon as she leaves Snotty City

People who had NOTHING to do with this marketing failure must suffer.

In what universe did she think this was going to be okay to say 😹

Capitalism is disgusting. This is an example of why Capitalism was never for the employees but for board members and executives.

CNN to the rescue of the oppressed worker.

Ok, get in

She has an address so

We don't live in Pity City. We live in real cities which are expensive. We've got to get paid b-otch.

After receiving her $4 million bonus.

Hahah - y'all voted for 'student loan forgiveness' and all you got was, 'STFU, no bonuses for you'. 😂

When her business sinks don’t cover it under any chapter, have it come out of her personal account. She can leave pity city as well.

They all have a choice, stay or leave! Quit whining and take control of your life.

Did she not care about her bonus also?

Completely different take if it's a guy though.

she's american...she's normal over there

Pep talk? She was castigating them for poor sales and no bonuses while she helped herself to millions. Stop going easy on these robber barons
