We were kind of casually considering Zenefits (we have our own insurance broker we are happy with and don't want to change) but this makes me want to use them for the rest of our HR system.
I expect a lot more of these legal / lobbying group confrontations now that Benefits, Tesla, Lyft, AirBnB etc have moved onto these regulated sectors.
I have some sympathy for the taxis and hotels in the Lyft/AirBnB cases. Taxis are generally required to pick up any fare and deliver anywhere as long as they can be paid. That can be scary, dangerous, or un lucrative. Lyft (and those assholes Uber) cream skim this business, offering better & cheaper service to a more lucrative subset.
Likewise AirBnB can provide a great service (I love it) but can mess up a residential neighborhood.
The fix isn't banning them of course, nor is it fettering them with the same stupid rules that favor the incumbent.
