Controversial CEO of Clearlink faces backlash over insensitive remarks and actions.

Utah tech CEO James Clarke is facing criticism after a video of him questioning the capabilities of working mothers and praising an employee for selling her dog to comply with a new in-office mandate went viral. Clarke alleged that many remote workers were not "working hard at all" and challenged his employees to outwork him. He also praised a working mother who sold her family dog to comply with the return-to-office mandate and expressed skepticism over anyone's ability to balance work and childcare. The video clip has received backlash on social media.
