Erin Daly is seeking damages as well as backpay and unpaid bonuses. Daly has also filed a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and will pursue federal discrimination claims. Other US banks have previously faced similar discrimination charges. In less than two weeks, Bank of America settled a case with a former employee who alleged it operated a “bro’s club”.
