What becomes glaringly obvious against the backdrop of these menial tasks is the rampant sexual misconduct being held as an open secret in the office. It's one of the behaviors Weinstein has been accused of, allegations he continues to deny. In the film, Jane not only becomes aware of what is going on behind closed doors, but she also discovers that many of her coworkers have been living with this knowledge for years and have done nothing, much like those who came forward in the New York Times bombshell exposé on Weinstein have alleged about his film company.
