Smp live quotes :^) @SmpLiveQuotess I just realized how depressed and shocked I would be to hear some super s----- drama someone from smp live caused. Hearing about the mr beast drama (true or not) kinda made me think about the people I look up to a lot.

Overview

MrBeast Employee Bullying Controversy refers to former video editor for MrBeast, Matt Turner, accusing MrBeast of improper management and bullying. In October 2019, Matt Turner took to Twitter recount the horrible time he had working for MrBeast using very little evidence but promised to upload a video explainer in the near future. The statement was met with both support and criticism do to the lack of evidence.

Background

On October 5th, 2019, former video editor for MrBeast, Matt Turner^[1] posted a series of tweets explaining that working for MrBeast was "the most mentally draining time of [his] life." He described several instances of bullying and the initial tweet gained over 1,200 likes and 200 retweets in two days.

SoaR Turner @Turnur I'm not going to make a video about my time editing for MrBeast, but I will say that was the most mentally draining time of my life. I was yelled at, bullied, called mentally retarded & replaceable by MrBeast everyday. Being in tears and having mental breakdowns day after day- 5:03 PM Oct 5, 2019 Twitter for iPhone SoaR Turner @Turnur Oct 5 Replying to @Turnur -is difficult, and after awhile became too much. After every editing mistake I made, I was made to feel like an absolute idiot, even if the content wasn't real. No credit was given (unless a video I edited got credited to someone else.) editors were told SoaR Turner @Turnur Oct 5 "if we ever leave the team we shouldn't be set up for success after, so no credit will be given. Ideas would be taken, people would be baited into the team, and I would be screamed at and then told "I just misinterpreted what I heard" by his impossible to please momager.- SoaR Turner @Turnur Oct 5 We would be forced to RESIGN NDAS, and then told these were our "glory days". So that's a summary of almost everyday on the team. That's what it was like to work for MrBeast, and that is why I don't work there now. Thanks for tuning in

Notable Developments

On October 6th, 2019, Former MrBeast employee @FlyyDoesYT^[2] tweeted "I used to edit for Mr. Beast. I made a video explaining my experience while I did so, and I basically said it was one of the worst consecutive weeks of my life. I was manipulated by Keemstar and MrBeast on DramaAlert, and the whole internet turned against me basically" (shown below, left). That same day, Turner^[3] agreed to provide proof through uploading a YouTube video (shown below, right). The tweet gained over 200 likes in two days.

Former employee @FlyyDoesYT,^[4] replied to the announcement say, "Risky move. You might end up getting words thrown in your mouth, words twisted and the whole 9 yards, no matter how much proof and shit you have. But do what you think is right" to which Turner replied "Yeah man when you made your video, the office was in panic mode because everything you said was true. There were basically a “how can we cover this up” meetings, rather than a “how can we fix this” ones" (shown below, left). Turner^[5] also provided texts of himself making the same accusations to a friend while working for MrBeast (shown below, right).

l Verizon @ ni 78% 1:07 PM LOLI didn't expect that one I feel that though man, working for Beast is like being a videographer for North Korea 5/8/18, 12:06 AM Lolol why Like what in particular 5/8/18, 12:09 AM -The dishonesty on payment (being told you'd make overtime, working overtime, then not getting payed how you were told.) -Constantly reminds his workers we are replaceable -Makes everyone miserable and gets mad at everyone when he ends shoots early or forgets to do things in a video -will get mad at editors for not hitting 10 minutes when he forgot the content) Start a message GIF Σ

-Reason for not getting credit is he doesn't want us to get big because then we could leave him and be successful on our Own -The laziest person I've ever worked for -Will a good cut 5 minutes out of a video and be mad it's too short -Gets SUPER jealous when we outshine him in videos and intentionally will intentionally cut us or Re do our jokes if we are funnier I went off Imaoooo But it's an interesting read Also his massive ego and is passive aggressive 24/7 5/8/18, 12:15 AM Lol oof That sounds toxic Start a message GIF
