PulteGroup Versus Black Former Employees Discrimination Case, Unresolved But Exits Michigan Venue

Potential deal between PulteGroup's CEO Ryan Marshall and Black Former Employees breaks down amid accusations of further wrongdoing

LANSING, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--According to Idus Hartsfield, Richard Turnbow and Roderick Hunter, “While we sued PulteGroup after suffering racial discrimination, we have decided to withdraw this particular litigation rather than settle on terms that would require us to 'sell out' and portray a false version of the real culture at PulteGroup. Ryan Marshall’s PulteGroup threatened to use procedural legal tactics to evade responsibility for racist wrongdoing and condoned an employee using a noose with Black employees; PulteGroup’s response to the litigation which was brought in good faith after years of reporting racism and discrimination confirm that PulteGroup and Ryan Marshall, the CEO, have not learned anything from years of mistreatment of its employees.”
