Live Action News recently discovered and documented dozens of online reviews, allegedly posted by current and former Planned Parenthood employees, criticizing the abortion chain for its substandard care, its exploitative treatment of employees, and its toxic culture.
One online review, apparently written by a former employee of Planned Parenthood in Atlanta, Georgia, describes how the employee was lured to Planned Parenthood by promises management made about the corporation being a ‘family-oriented workplace,’ and ended up disappointed.
“I joined Planned Parenthood Southeast (PPSE) with high hopes, motivated by the organization’s mission and its promise of being a family-oriented workplace. Unfortunately, my experience did not align with those expectations,” the reviewer said.
The reviewer went on to describe isolation in a role within HR, how he/she felt “unsupported and undervalued,” as well as “excluded from meaningful collaboration or professional camaraderie.” Furthermore, “Leadership and communication were significant challenges,” the reviewer claimed.

The reviewer discussed never having met his/her supervisor in person before being terminated, due to elimination of the position.
“I never met my direct supervisor in person throughout my tenure – except for the day I was terminated due to my position being eliminated. The termination process was handled poorly, with no prior notice or transparency. I was asked to attend a ‘confidential meeting’ in the office, only to be let go without a direct conversation about what to expect, despite previously inquiring about job security.”

The reviewer alleged that PPSE was not “caring” for employees, though it claimed to be, and the affiliate workplace lacked even “[b]asic human connection.”
“PPSE emphasizes being a caring and supportive organization for employees and the community, but this wasn’t reflected in its workplace culture. Basic human connection – like asking about my well-being or taking an interest in my family – was absent. Meanwhile, I made efforts to build rapport by learning about my colleagues’ personal lives, which was never reciprocated.”
Interestingly, the reviewer claimed to still “fully support PPSE’s broader mission,” while noting, “For a mission-driven organization, there is a stark disconnect between [Planned Parenthood’s] external values and how it treats employees internally.”
Another Indeed review, apparently authored by a former Planned Parenthood medical assistant in Sacramento, contrasts Planned Parenthood’s externally promoted “mission” to “support women’s rights” with the way the corporation treats its own employees.

“Despite the organization’s mission to support women’s rights and mental health, this same level of compassion was not extended to employees,” the reviewer wrote.

“Bad place to work, “ claims another Indeed review, apparently by a former medical assistant in Grand Rapids, Michigan. “They don’t care bout their employees!”
The irony of these comments about Planned Parenthood by alleged former employees is that Planned Parenthood is, of course, not a family-oriented organization, and does not truly care for people. The corporation kills the most innocent members of the human family on a daily basis, destroys mothers and fathers, and wreaks moral and emotional havoc on employees.
