"Our culture and tone have been inappropriate for a highly regulated company" That might not be a bad thing. It could be precisely because it was inappropriate

  > That might not be a bad thing. It could be precisely because it was inappropriate that Zenefits got ahead. ...for now. But if the end result is massive fines, plus a bunch of their sales staff (and maybe their superiors) getting thrown in prison under Washington's criminal laws relating to selling insurance without a brokers license, plus ruining the company's relationship with customers and with the insurers whose products it sells (and possible breach-of-contract actions from those insurers). Well, then, getting ahead for a little while before the whole thing caught up to them isn't going to seem like a big advantage.

  Generally speaking, racking up a bunch of Class B felonies is "inappropriate" for any company, heavily regulated or otherwise.

  This is essentially thief and drug dealer logic.
