Testimony from OceanGate’s former operations director echoes that of other ex-employees, one of whom described company head Stockton Rush as volatile and difficult to work with

A key employee who labelled a doomed experimental submersible unsafe prior to its last, fatal voyage testified Tuesday that he frequently clashed with the company’s co-founder and felt the company was committed only to making money.

Lochridge’s testimony began a day after other witnesses painted a picture of a troubled company that was impatient to get its unconventionally designed craft into the water. The accident set off a worldwide debate about the future of private undersea exploration. Asked whether he had confidence in the way the Titan was being built, he said: “No confidence whatsoever.”

OceanGate’s former finance and human resources director, Bonnie Carl, testified Monday that Lochridge had characterized the Titan as “unsafe.”
