Green Sprouts Reviews

Original Review: The previously mentioned CEO of Green Sprouts is a self proclaimed aware person seeking personal growth meditating in between moments of chaos and abuse against her team. She is willing to threaten and verbally berate her employees if they do anything without her approval. Even then she will misremember her direction and punish those who have acted out of term. Keep in mind many of the people this company employs are hard work talented people who could run circles around her chaos and grow the company terrifically if she would just get out of the way. She will fire for no other reason than to drive down compensation. Reviewing a spread sheet and making an off handed choice to fire without honest input or respect from their supervisor. Or she will reduce salaries, threat employees that they will paying for company expenses, and refuse to honor payment agreements. Your moral compass will be tested. In order to keep your job you may have to participate in activities you do not agree with. She will talk about you with your peers. She will question your weight fluctuations and mental health. She will demand you tell her why you are out of office then use it against you later. She is impulsive. She has no idea what she is doing but has employed smart people long enough to keep this company going. The turnover is huge. The CEO thinks it’s a good thing. As if company knowledge, information, and processes walking out the door every two years is a good thing. More than likely those people challenged her ego and will now relieve her of that feeling of tension. The CEO will hire a POC and then tell everyone and celebrate that as a victory. She has been know to hire a POC then call the one other person on staff that happens to be a POC and tell them. As if she was deserving of a pat on the back for her great contribution. She later fired that person and bullied the other so badly they had to quit. This employer is abusive, controlling, and not mentally stable. The list can go on. Edit: After I posted my Glassdoor review, I received a cease and desist letter signed by the GreenSprouts CEO, accusing me of disclosing “confidential information,” and demanding that I take it down. My husband (an attorney) responded via email that her accusations were legally incoherent and without merit, but that he would be happy to speak with the company’s attorney about her letter. The next day, he received an email and a phone call from an attorney at a large law firm located in Boston. The attorney withdrew the CEO’s demand that I take down my review (tellingly), even while she continued to insist that it contained “confidential information.” She also reiterated that GreenSprouts would be “monitoring” my social media posts and reviews, and threatened legal action “if the company sees [my] behavior continue.” My husband told the attorney he disagrees with the CEO’s assertion that my review discloses “confidential information” (even by the company’s own definition), and said if GreenSprouts wants me to conform my future conduct to its expectations, it should at least explain its reasoning. She, of course, could not explain, and instead fell back on the vague threat that if I don’t post anything, there won’t be any problems. Well, GreenSprouts is not entitled to my silence. I am providing this update because the CEO’s actions in response to my review are EXACTLY the type of bullying and harassment I feel people should be warned about.

Nearly every day at Green Sprouts felt like a part of my soul was being erased. Individualism is not celebrated, hard work is not appreciated, responsibility is ignored and worker safety is of no concern for management at Green Sprouts. You'd be hard pressed to find anyone who really truly cared about their job or those around them. I've heard racist comments from fellow coworkers, sexist comments, sexually explicit comments, etc. It is impossible to make any kind of proper complaint as you are often reporting to a family member, best friend, etc, of the person making the comments. I could go on and on, but you get the idea. The owner is bizarre and abusive, her husband is out of touch
