Rotschy, Inc.

Here's what people are saying about Rotschy, Inc.:

"This nonunion contractor low bids and gets bids on government contracts. This contractor was negligent, hiring an underage employee who [got] in an accident and lost their legs. How do they get work with their insurance scores?"

Tony Juarez | Senior Operations Director, Kaiser Permanente Ambulatory Care Svcs

Greg Adams | CEO, Kaiser Permanente

Here's what people had to say about Greg:

Nicole Jensen | Co-Founder, Hopscotch

Here's what people had to say about Nicole:

New Seasons Market

Here's what people had to say about New Seasons Market:

"Claiming B Corp status even though they pay their employees like shit. Their bargaining team has 'bargaining fatigue' even though they’re paid to be there. They don’t let employees take food that’s being thrown out."
