FDIC Hires Law Firm Cleary Gottlieb to Handle Workplace Culture Review
A special committee at the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. said it had hired the law firm Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP to conduct a review into the workplace culture, replacing another previously hired law firm nearly a month after The Wall Street Journal revealed allegations of harassment and discrimination pervaded the agency.Led by former acting Manhattan U.S. Attorney Joon Kim, Cleary Gottlieb will examine allegations of sexual harassment and misconduct as well as other issues related to the workplace culture, including “any practices that might discourage or otherwise deter the reporting of, or appropriate response to, harassment and interpersonal misconduct,” the special committee said.Copyright ©2023 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.
