They shifted over the years. From RvB, to Achievement Hunter, Rage Quit, and Let's Play, to RWBY, to podcasts. It seems like the current move is just cutting out the non-pod stuff since that's what is successful right now.

They had alleged abuse. I think part of it was the start up mentality of working long hours and expecting others to do the same even after they had become a stable company.

Some alleged slurs also from people who were a lot more comfortable than they probably should have been with coworkers. At least one of the people alleging slurs also definitely used slurs. May or may not be connected to how comfortable they were saying the types of things they did.

Honestly, that's kind of scratching the surface. There were a couple predators that were ousted when they were caught. One dude was ousted when he went off the deep end with conspiracy theories and was too crazy to work with. One guy was an alcoholic but got better.

They seemed to gradually get better. But they really seemed to have a new controversy every couple of years.
