Description: A CEO’s unsympathetic response to employee questions about bonuses is drawing controversy online. Andi Owen — who helms MillerKnoll, the furniture group behind brands such as Herman Miller and Design Within Reach — has become a corporate villain in the eyes of critics after a video of her scolding staffers was made public. In the viral clip, taken during a recent town hall, Owen urges workers to “leave Pity City” and focus on the company’s $26 million sales goal, rather than on “what you’re going to do if we don’t get a bonus.” • The median employee salary at MillerKnoll is $44,810, per CNN. Owen was paid nearly $5 million in 2022. • The company’s sales fell 4.4.% in the most recent quarter, while orders dropped by 19%.
