"CEO's "Leave Pity City" Comment Sparks Backlash Among Employees"

Andi Owen, CEO of furniture company MillerKnoll, told employees asking about bonuses to focus on achieving the company's $26 million goal instead of dwelling on not receiving a bonus. Owen, who made $5 million in compensation last year, has been implementing cost-cutting measures and shifting the company's focus to hybrid work environments and online sales in response to pandemic-related disruptions. MillerKnoll recently announced the closure of a manufacturing plant in Wisconsin and layoffs of 162 employees. The company has issued a statement defending Owen's comments.
