80% Informative

Jeffrey Smith , an engineer, filed a lawsuit against Meta in New York .

He says he started speaking up about the company's treatment of women in the summer of 2023 .

Smith alleged that Meta was on the brink of promoting him when suddenly his "upward trajectory" stopped.

Smith alleges he suffered emotional distress and economic injury due to this alleged retaliation.

An attorney for Smith , Valdi Licul , provided Ars with a statement, characterizing Smith 's case as "yet another example of how major corporations are failing to address sexist cultures and how they try to silence those who speak out against their practices. We look forward to holding Meta accountable and making it clear that sexism has no place in the workforce." Meta did not immediately respond to Ars' request to comment..
