Sen. Elizabeth Warren apologized Thursday night after six staffers of color working in the early-voting state of Nevada left her campaign amid complaints of feeling tokenized and having to deal with a toxic work environment.
The staffers, all women, have all left Warrens 70-person Nevada team since November, with three of them saying they felt marginalized and that their grievances were not addressed despite taking them to their superiors or to human resources staff, Politico reported Thursday.
During the time I was employed with Nevada for Warren, there was definitely something wrong with the culture, Megan Lewis, a field organizer who joined the campaign in May and departed in December, told Politico. I filed a complaint with HR, but the follow-up I received left me feeling as though I needed to make myself smaller or change who I was to fit into the office culture.

Probably had a better job offer from Bernie.
