Former Employees of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Speak Out About Their Experience Working for the Couple
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have recently been labeled as “horrible bosses from hell” due to their outrageous rules and requirements.
According to one tabloid, former employees of the couple have been left traumatized by their experience working for them and have vowed never to set foot in Montecito again.
Some of these employees spoke with the tabloid to detail their experiences with Prince Harry and Markle.
One of the most shocking claims made by the source is that Harry and Meghan pay tens of thousands of dollars to hire a special FBI-type agent to do background checks on potential hires.
They are not just looking for criminal records or verifying referrals; they want to know everything.
Details about your family, even grandparents, personal relationships, what kind of town you come from, and your spending habits.

If you have too many credit cards, you won't get the job.
Despite hundreds of applicants initially wanting to work for Prince Harry and Markle, only 1% pass the screening.
And those that are offered a job receive a detailed contract that's filled with fine print.
A common complaint among the Sussexes' former employees is that the contract is so complicated that even licensed attorneys would have a hard time deciphering its contents.
The insider added that Prince Harry and Markle have very specific demands.
For instance, their staff cannot speak to them at all times.
The only time they can have a conversation with their bosses is when Prince Harry and Markle are the first ones to talk to them.
Gadgets like mobile phones and laptops are also not allowed inside the couple's Montecito mansion.
And there's a specific dress code that everyone needs to abide by.
Those that fail to follow the rules are immediately fired.
However, between Prince Harry and Markle, the couple's former staff allegedly dislike Meghan more.
Some people call her the wicked witch of the West Coast behind her back.
According to a source, you feel like Meghan is constantly breathing down your neck, even when she isn't in the room.
If you forget to put the top back on a pen, you get told off.
The cups in the kitchen cupboard need to be a certain distance from one another, and everything is color coordinated.
If anything is left out of place, she snaps at you.
According to royal author Tom Quinn, Meghan also allegedly had problems with Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge's staff.
Sources from Kensington Palace have opened up about an incident in which Meghan felt put in her place by Catherine Middleton's staffer.
Meghan and Harry were living in what's called Nottingham Cottage, and it's probably the only bit that you genuinely really could say is actually quite small.
And so, I think that reminded Meghan that she was, as it were, second place or as the runner up.
So, when Harry and Will got together and sometimes Meghan and Catherine as well, because there was this tension occasionally, famously Meghan slightly lost her temper with a member of Catherine's staff in front of Catherine.
Meghan allegedly felt that a member of the Duchess of Cambridge's staff was not giving her the sort of attention she deserved.
She asked this person, who works for Catherine, to do something but was told, “I'm really sorry I can't do that because I work for Catherine.”
Meghan really felt she had been slightly put in her place because if you become a princess, you kind of assume that staff, when you ask them to do something, they are going to do it.
In response to the incident, Catherine was reportedly horrified and really upset, according to Quinn.
The former employees of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's staff have revealed a glimpse into the couple's world, and it's not a pretty picture.
