The Martin Agency CEO Matt Williams and President Beth Rilee-Kelley said in a letter to employees that the agency has “had a painful wake up call” and that the behavior former employee Joe Alexander is accused of is “inexcusable.”
Alexander, a 26-year employee who had been the company’s chief creative officer since 2012, abruptly left the agency on Friday, Dec. 1.
The two top executives at the Richmond-based agency sent the memo to the company’s approximately 400 employees late Thursday afternoon.
In an interview, Williams and Rilee-Kelley would not disclose the specific details of the allegations against Alexander.
