Former C1 Espresso employee Raya Sharples speaks to Stuff about her time working for Sam Crofskey. A former C1 Espresso manager says she felt guilty about her role in what she believes was the Christchurch cafe’s “cult-like” atmosphere of bullying and surveillance. She claims staff were afraid to air grievances because of a culture of “spying on each other” created by owner Sam Crofskey. Dean Kozanic/Stuff Sam Crofskey has denied bullying staff. Joseph Johnson/Stuff Punters enjoy a drink at C1 Espresso on Friday.
