Young Female Analyst Quits Deloitte Due To “Naughty” Email
Lesson learnt, never ever write anything stupid in company email, it spreads faster than you can imagine.
A female graduate trainee at the consultants Deloitte has quit after an embarrassing email she sent discussing attractive male staff, was forwarded around the world.
Holly Leam-Taylor became the latest victim of a viral email craze when her light hearted message to colleagues spread like wildfire across the internet.
In the email, entitled Deloitte First year analysts Christmas Awards, sent on December 8, Ms Leam-Taylor asked her female colleagues to vote on which men in the office they considered most attractive.
She listed nine categories including, ‘boy most likely to sleep his way to the top’ and ‘most attractive older member of staff’.
Miss Leam-Taylor, who is in her early 20s, wrote: “I’ll send out the results on Friday 18th Dec (that is all I will be doing that day as I will be SO hung-over from the ball!)
The email was only intended for a small group within her office, but was quickly forwarded outside the building and within hours was being read by millions of internet users as far away as New Zealand and Australia.
Miss Leam-Taylor, who has been employed as a trainee analyst at the international company since August, resigned from her job the following day.
This is the details in full of that email:
Subject: Deloitte First year analysts Christmas Awards
So girls….
It’s been nearly 4 months at Deloitte so I think we should have some sort of Xmas awards ceremony for us ladies about the stuff that really matters at work i.e. gossip/ the boys! This probably massively violates the HR equal opportunities policy, but never mind! It’s all for fun and a bit of a laugh.
Ok, so the categories are below, please get your votes in asap, I’ll send out the results on Friday 18th Dec (that is all I will be doing that day as I will be SO hungover from the ball!) Any comments as to why you’ve picked a certain person that are particularly good/hilarious can be included, anonymously, of course
1.) Fittest boy – looks
2.) Fittest boy – body
3.) Best dressed boy
4.) Boy most likely to sleep his way to the top
5.) Best piece of gossip you’ve heard so far this year
6.) Most attractive “older” member of staff (i.e above analyst grade)
7.) Boy with the best personality
8.) Most hilarious/embarrassing moment a girl has had
9.) The official Deloitte First-year Analyst Girls “Man of the year”
Enjoy thinking about it!
Much love to all
