They also started to favor quantity of content over quality.

While true before a year ago, at the same time the SMM thing happened, they did some content mistakes, owned up to them and started doing the exact opposite of what you're saying

I certainly hope so. I stopped caring about them years ago for other reasons. I simply saw that story over the news when it happened. But I could argue that it still took them the departure of their social media manager to realize what they were doing. If she just left without talking about her experience, who knows how they would be today.

the leaving of her and the change in content production were actually seperate issues. iirc she spoke up once the content issues came up. Her problem wasn't even "just" toxic work schedules/loads, but actual harrasment from someone, which aparently wasn't properly dealt with at the time
