Some highlights from ex FTX employee Danielle Cloud:

The Bahamas office had 24/7 food catering. Employees were also provided with free groceries, free monthly haircuts, and bi-weekly massages.
The company had 6 or so luxury condos for employees to use, free-of-charge. Stays at luxury hotels were also expensed by FTX.
Staff worked Monday through Sunday, and were shouted at for requesting holidays off.
Sam brought in a mental health specialist to treat employee fatigue. This person is said to be a family friend of the Bankman-Frieds. There are allegations that the psych frequently asked Danielle about her sex life, and informed her that his wife would not mind if he cheated (yikes).
Allegations that FTX admin illegally shipped drugs to Nassau, with prescriptions being filled in California and Florida
Everyone at FTX knew the "effective altruism" persona was bullshit.
FTX failed to meet its charitable commitments. Sam's father told staff the money would be better spent on legal fees.
