Former Employee Sues Dave Ramsey, Calls His Company “Cult-Like”
Radio host and personal finance pundit Dave Ramsey and his company Ramsey Solutions are being sued for religious discrimination, fraud and misrepresentation based on claims that echo recent high-profile rumors about company culture, but also outline broader similarities to cults.
Legal representation for Brad Amos — a former employee of the Lampo Group who does business as Ramsey Solutions — filed the lawsuit in chancery court at the Williamson County Judicial Center.

The suit outlines an allegation from Amos about being obligated to attend a meeting of 900 employees after a confirmed case of COVID-19 among them was announced.
