A Grindr Inc. director earned more than $200,000 in short-swing trading profits that must be returned to the dating app company, two shareholders say in a new lawsuit.

George Raymond Zage III and his investment funds traded Grindr common stock and warrants between Aug. 21 and Sept. 15 without an exception, according to the complaint.


The Grindr United union has alleged that the company’s policy amounts to retaliation.



The headline was exceeding the character limit so that’s why it was edited and shortened.

Updated again. Does this revision make more sense?


At a time when unions are fighting for workers' rights across the country and companies are responding by using tried-and-true union-busting techniques, the LGBTQ+ dating app Grindr has reportedly issued its employees an ultimatum: Move across the country to work in an office or lose your job.

Right on the heels of the workers announcing they were unionizing two weeks ago, Grindr sent out a new return-to-work policy that requires workers to either move within 50 miles of the company’s new offices or their jobs will end on August 31, according to Vice, who obtained a copy of the certification form sent to workers on Monday night.


Where can one donate to the Grindr union?


Not an American resident, but from what I hear about your culture, 50 miles seems very close as a limit for distance. Even if it's direct and not road distance.


Oh no, they might need to actually go into the office?


This is about what you’d expect from someone who thinks democracy is flawed and the “educated elite” should make decisions directly.


That’s the way the greatest countries were built


Two weeks after employees filed to organize, the company told most they had to change cities or would lose their jobs. It said the plan had long been in the works.
