OK, then one would just tell B Corp to remove them the list no? I don't see how this invalidates all companies on that list. What company is this anyway?

- Nextgrid 5y agoArbonne (https://www.arbonne.com https://www.arbonne.com) is one example and they proudly claim to be a B-Corp on their website right under the offer to join the pyramid scheme as an "independent consultant". > then one would just tell B Corp to remove them the list no This is not something that flew under the radar and can trivially be removed - the aforementioned company's business model is well known for example and despite that they became and are still a B-Corp. My point is that B-Corp is happy to accept companies whose business model preys on and profits off vulnerable, financially-illiterate people, directly contradicting their claim of certifying companies which have a "positive impact on society, workers, the community and the environment" (from Wikipedia, emphasis mine).
- yannoninator 5y agoThere is a procedure for this: https://bimpactassessment.net/complaints-procedure https://bimpactassessment.net/complaints-procedure It seems you can get them removed and it does look like you are complaining about a company that shouldn't be a B Corp, so you could take your complaint there. Not sure if that means that all B Corps or B Corps are bad in general.
