It was Blackberry’s former chief marketing officer who sued the company’s CEO, alleging he sexually harassed her and then retaliated against her for reporting the behaviour, according to a report.

Neelam Sandhu – who worked for the company for nearly 15 years ending in December 2023 – filed the case against Blackberry and CEO John Giamatteo in April, reported The Canadian Press.

Sandhu alleged that Giamatteo had “tried to get close to her” and “woo” her after he became the president of the company’s cybersecurity business in October 2021.
