About
Casey Crowe Taylor served as a public relations employee and senior director for corporate communications at L Brands, the parent company of Victoria's Secret, until her resignation in December 2019. During her employment, she witnessed and experienced workplace misconduct, including sexual harassment such as an incident in 2018 where Ed Razek, the longtime chief marketing officer, allegedly grabbed her buttocks during a meeting; she emailed human resources about the incident but felt it was not adequately addressed. Taylor contributed to public exposés by speaking to The New York Times in 2020, detailing a toxic workplace culture involving misogyny, body-shaming, and cover-ups of misconduct under leadership including Les Wexner and Ed Razek. Her accounts helped amplify allegations of systemic issues at the company, which led to Razek's resignation in August 2020 and broader scrutiny of L Brands.
