    Digital Desk: A CEO’s response to an employee’s resignation goes viral on social media. The Reddit user 6rynn shared the post that detailed the user's decision to quit his job over verbal abuse from the CEO. The accompanying email from the CEO, which has gone viral, is drawing widespread condemnation for its perceived lack of empathy and professionalism.

    According to the Reddit post, the user endured a year of verbal abuse from the CEO. The situation escalated when the CEO, who had stopped coming into the office, became increasingly aggressive over the phone. The breaking point came after enduring four days of what the user described as being "cussed out" by the CEO.

    During one of these events, the user responded by verbally resigning, saying they would not be spoken to in that way. Following their departure, the CEO reportedly instructed colleagues to block all communication with the former employee.

    The user's resignation explicitly cited the CEO's frequent violations of HR policy. The CEO's subsequent email response, described as barely two paragraphs with zero grammar, further fueled the controversy.
