Martin Bally placed on temporary leave as company conducts internal investigation following lawsuit.
Accusations are making their rounds after a Campbell Soup Company executive allegedly made disparaging comments regarding the company’s customers and employees.
The executive was secretly recorded during a meeting, according to a lawsuit filed in Michigan’s Wayne County Circuit Court.
The suit, filed by Robert Garza, a former cybersecurity analyst for Campbell Soup, accuses Martin Bally, the company’s vice president and chief information security officer, of making the offensive comments during a meeting in November 2024.
Garza recorded the conversation, which he said took place at the company’s headquarters in Camden, New Jersey, Local 4 News Detroit reported.
In the recording, a voice alleged to be Bally’s can be heard criticizing Campbell’s products and mocking its consumers.
“We have s— for f—ing poor people. Who buys our s—? I don’t buy Campbell’s products barely anymore,” the voice allegedly belonging to Bally can be heard saying.
“Bioengineered meat — I don’t wanna eat a piece of chicken that came from a 3-D printer,” Bally allegedly says, belittling Campbell’s soup ingredients.
He also allegedly made derogatory comments about Indian coworkers and – according to the recording – claimed he sometimes came to work under the influence of marijuana.
“F—ing Indians don’t know a f—ing thing,” the voice on the recording says. “They couldn’t think for their f—ing selves.”
