There are other videos on the internet about this, but basically PMG have done a terrible job here. One person is accused of serious corporate misconduct, and the others have allegations of being hard to work with, and PMG effectively treats them as equal, not even realising that the reason maybe some people were hard to work with was because of forced labour from the guy also doing the corporate misconduct.

They've just not done a great job overall here.

I disagree. "Being difficult to work with" is a fucking euphemism for harassing the employees. He was fired for harassment and gender discrimination, and by all accounts he is guilty of both.

If you like Disco Elysium, you should know that there are stories where everyone is a villain. The only ones who got fucked are all the other employees, whom you'll notice didn't come to the defense of Kurvitz, but wanted to have their voices heard separately.

I think it's a mess, that the current owners are probably shady as fuck, but I also believe that Kurvitz was an abusive fuck who needed to go.

He was fired

He owns the business. His ownership was liquidated by the other owner without paperwork, and most of the other owners dispute that the ownership was ever diluted. The decision over whether he should have been "fired" are really upto him and the other business owners.

It's also unclear why the other employees, who may or may not have been coerced, were not siding with Kurvitz. I agree it's a mess, but there's a big gap between "feelings" and "actually grossly illegal stuff".

You realized that harassment is grossly illegal stuff, right?

Please don't recommend the PMG investigation.
