Gusto

San Francisco, CA

Gusto is a market-leading payroll and HR management platform that serves U.S. small and mid-market businesses; by 2026 it had reached $1B+ in revenue with ~2,400 employees across SF, Denver, and New York. The company has organized, structured culture with fixed hybrid in-office days and AI use embedded as an explicit job expectation. However, Blind reviewers and recent employees report a cultural shift from people-first to efficiency-driven, with some describing leadership as political, and Glassdoor ratings are modest at 3.1/5 with just 44% recommending the company.
