Amazon faced a major setback on Tuesday, October 20, when Laura Danbom, an employee of seven years, accused a top-performing advertising executive of violating her at an office party.
Michelangelo Simonte allegedly took what began as a night of flirtatious conversation in an unexpected direction in 2023, a lawsuit states.
She said she reported the incident to HR, hoping the department would support her, but was instead instructed to keep the matter to herself.
