Another day, another "best place to work" list that has no real quality controls on the reviews or methodology to ensure reviews are not fake or coerced.
They all do not control for systemic bias of reviews.
At what point is it just a marketing piece?
- mc3 7y agoReminds me of a company years ago that had particularly low morale for various reasons. They then entered one of these good place to work competitions and told us that "yeah it's ironic, but help us by giving us a good review because it's good for marketing". And dutifully everyone agreed. Glassdoor is fun. Worked a different company with lots of honest raw reviews giving you a real feel for it. Couple of years later, issues not addressed, but now great reviews! Well done to the repu managers.
