It’s why I always feel a bit icky when people celebrate these places going under.
Especially when it’s the kind of place that has a lot of people that have been working there for a long time (see WHSmith).

Their beer’s for sale in almost every super market, and is premium but costs more per 330ml tin, than mid range beers do per 500ml tin. How the hell have they managed to lose money?
After the bullying allegations, this almost feels like an orchestrated attempt to under value Brewdog, to let the founders cash out.
Wankers.

Brewdog has caused so much damage. Creating the awful Brewdogging trend with job interviews. Screwing people over. Stealing ideas. It’s just scum from start to finish.

“Simpson says staff were also told they would be given forms to apply for their pay through the Insolvency Service, which meant it would be “paid by the public purse”.”
They lost holiday pay and then told to apply for their final paycheck…
I really wish we had laws in place that made sure the employees are given their due before the company or its owners. Its peoples livelihoods.Â

Strikes me as a pretty poignant microcosm of everything wrong with business today.
Fledgling company builds a following off an anti-corporate image, gains funding from everyday folks, becomes big off the back of their investment, eventually sells out and fucks over the people who made them big while ensuring that private equity and the owners get a nice payout.
The wealthy win, the normal people lose.
I used to think “eat the rich” was just some cringe far left utterance teenagers would drop to sound vaguely anti-establishment, but this last decade or so has firmly cemented in me that the wealthy are parasites that will fuck us all over for a little extra coin.

They knowingly worked for a bunch of evil cunts, so I can’t feel that sorry for them.
It is like when News of the World shuttered, as ye sow so shall ye reap.
