NDAs typically state that employees cannot disclose proprietary information - copyrighted software, patented algorithms, etc.
Tabspace does not request this information. Instead, we are asking for a general assessment of this content rather than the substantive content itself. While this could be helpful for a prospective employee, it does not damage a company's competitive position or compromise them in any way.
We ensure that all data is anonymised and aggregated. However, if you believe submitting a review could have you fall foul of the law, please don't submit a review.
- troydavis 9y agoMost of the NDA boilerplate I’ve seen includes this or something like it: > any and all information not generally known to the public … which would include ratings. Since you’re not trying to subvert NDAs, clauses like that are probably a common enough to mention on the “Submit Review” page - maybe something like “Before submitting a review, ensure this information is not subject to an employer non-disclosure agreement.” Barely related: Your initial post (and the site copy) doesn’t match “it does not damage a company's competitive position or compromise them in any way.” If the point is to encourage prospective employees to use these ratings when deciding where to work, then by definition it’s affecting competitive positions.
- kyle_st 9y agoThat's a fair point, Troy. Thanks for the feedback!
