Towards the end of the season ex-employees are stalked by private investigators. This puts the characters on edge.

It's complicated. Sunny is verbally abusive to Elizabeth and there's one scene where she tries to pour his expensive juice down the drain and it appears that he's going to hurt her, but instead he tries to take it from her while screaming. It can still be triggering to abuse victims, so I'm going to vote yes just to be on the safe side.
