Pao suggests that she has evidence to prove a litany of awkward sexual overtures made toward her by colleagues, as well as of deafening silence by management.

KPCB, says Pao created her own drama wherever she went. 
With a B.S. from Princeton, a degree from Harvard Business School, and a law degree, Ellen Pao was a perfect fit for Kleiner Perkins when she arrived in 2005.

Pao's complaint of awkward interactions with her male peers and superiors starting in 2006. A fellow Junior Partner Ajit Nazre, “made inappropriate sexual approaches” , which Pao rebuffed. Nazre was married.

Pao admits having sex with Nazre "two or three times" but then told him “she would no longer have a personal relationship with him.” Pao alleges, Nazre began excluding her from meetings, failing to communicate information crucial to her job, and at one point asked the CEO of a company working with Pao to join the board of a company sponsored by Nazre.
Nazre was soon after made a senior partner in Kleiner Perkins' Greentech group, but because of their unworkable relationship, Pao alleges that the company asked her to move her office down the hall from Nazre's new, larger office. She refused, and KPCB then asked her to relocate to the company's China office. Pao refused again.
Ellen Pao was making $560,000 a year.   Part One.
