MrBeast’s Company Undergoes Major Changes Post-Investigation
Renowned YouTuber MrBeast has initiated significant transformations within his company following an internal investigation prompted by serious allegations. The external audit, which was conducted by the prominent law firm Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan, LLP, has unveiled critical insights into the operational landscape of MrBeast LLC.
Details of the Investigation
The investigation commenced on July 31, 2024, after staff member Ava Kris Tyson faced accusations related to inappropriate interactions with underage fans. This thorough review extended until November 1, culminating in a comprehensive three-month examination of the company’s environment.
During this period, the investigative team meticulously sifted through over 4.5 million documents, encompassing a wide array of communications, from text messages and emails to exchanges on platforms such as Slack and Discord. The exhaustive process aimed to shed light on the troubling allegations.
Findings and Implications
While the investigation cleared MrBeast LLC of any wrongful conduct concerning minors by its employees, it did reveal “several isolated instances of workplace harassment and misconduct.”These findings have triggered a wave of changes within the organization.
A former employee has expressed concerns about MrBeast’s “invincible”mindset, suggesting this attitude may lead to unresolved issues within his rapidly expanding empire.
Leadership Changes and New Policies
In light of the investigation’s outcomes, MrBeast is taking decisive action by appointing new executive leadership. Key positions such as CEO, CFO, CPO, and General Counsel are set to be filled, bringing fresh perspectives to the company’s operations. Additionally, an undisclosed number of employees have been terminated as part of the restructuring process.
To further enhance workplace culture, MrBeast LLC will implement mandatory corporate training, along with targeted workshops for individuals who may require additional guidance. New policies are also being established to fortify the operational framework of the company.

Additional Concerns and Future Actions
The investigation also requested an individual, identified as Dawson French (dogpack404), to refrain from publicly discussing allegations against MrBeast LLC during this period to maintain the investigation’s integrity. Notably, the findings did not address separate claims regarding Lunchly, a food service associated with MrBeast, which has faced scrutiny over food safety concerns.
Despite addressing some of the pressing issues within the company, MrBeast still has a considerable path ahead to fully resolve the various allegations that have emerged over the course of 2024. Continued transparency and proactive measures will be essential in restoring the integrity of his brand.
