Is Zenefits still a good recommendation, with all the fuss around their (possibly illegal?) practices, and the negative comments from HN users that seem to come up every time the company is mentioned?

Startups that scale that quickly are bound to make mistakes. Breaking the law is not okay, and there was some bad judgement there. But you'll find a lot of negative comments about the competition, too. Nobody is perfect. But Zenefits is free.

I've had almost all positive experiences and they've saved me an immense amount of headaches. Did I mention they're free?

If you're not paying for it, you're not the customer. You're the product.
