The news comes after increased scrutiny surrounding details in Tracy Evans 2018 lawsuit against the company
Evans, a former events and promotions manager at the Grand Rapids taproom, alleged that there was ‘a racist internal corporate culture’ at Founders
In his suit, Evans outlines numerous examples of ‘blatant racism’, including co-workers repeatedly using the ‘N word’ around him or towards him
He also claims management assigned a printer the ‘white guy printer’, while labeling a printer for the lower tier of employees the ‘black guy printer’
Leaked deposition transcripts show general manager Dominic Ryan trying to claim he didn’t know that Evans was black – despite knowing him for eight years
