Recent layoffs were poorly handled, many knew they were being laid off well before it happened due to a "tech error". When the CEO was asked how he would deal with the low morale after lay offs, he specifically stated that that's the nature of this company and "if you're not happy, Indigo is not the place for you". With the COVID-19 pandemic, lab personnel were forced to continue coming into the lab under the guise of working in agriculture. Employees were told to come into work with few safety measures, masks (not required for some time and sparsely available), or protocols in place until a month after the initial stay at home order. Employees have been lied to about precautions taken by upper management regarding cleaning of office and lab spaces. There is such a complete disregard for safety of employees it's almost comical.
