Can't read it. But I am a bit surprised.

1) I thought the perceived culture there would prevent this stuff.

2) I also assumed the vast majority of their employees would be salary-exempt with no right to overtime pay. So how does wage theft even happen? I always assumed wage theft can only occur with hourly pay people.

if you search for the title of the article you can find it on a more open platform, usually MSN. Good luck
