Did Houston Astros Bidder Engage in Workplace Discrimination?
The Houston Astros are for sale, and if you, like Jim Crane, have several hundred million dollars, you can own the famed team. However, if your company has a history of employment discrimination, you might want to avoid the limelight. (Unfortunately for Mr. Crane, that’s a lesson he didn’t heed.)
In 2000, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) investigated Mr. Crane’s company, Eagle Global Logistics, for its failure to promote blacks, Hispanics, and women into managerial positions. In fact, the EEOC further found that Eagle demoted women from managerial positions, fostered a hostile work environment and perpetuated a pay disparity between minorities and whites based on race and sex.
