Gusto locks users out when primary email is accidentally changed
Users who accidentally change their primary email in Gusto have no self-service path to revert it, creating account access risk. The platform offers no rollback mechanism or admin override for this common mistake. This is particularly disruptive for small business owners who are sole admins of their payroll accounts.
