I feel like your perspective is very narrow. You’ve had a bad experience at one company that you admit has done well for almost all their employees, therefore all companies are evil and your chance of happiness is zero? That doesn’t seem reasonable or even likely. May I recommend “Feeling Good” by David Burns? It has helped many people in situations like yours.
- giantg2 5y ago"therefore all companies are evil" Not evil, but that they lie and screw over employees. Are there any companies on Glassdoor with 100% positive ratings (with n>100)?
- sbarre 5y agoGlassdoor is a terrible metric for measuring companies. Like any rating system it is biased towards people with grievances, as they are motivated to look for an outlet to express that grievance.
- neura 5y agoOr, on the other hand, I've seen companies offering to enter you into gift card drawings to relate your positive experience with them on glassdoor, etc. :eyeroll: To me, glassdoor and the like are similar to Amazon reviews, you can't trust them, but it sometimes feels like the only way to _possibly_ get the information you're seeking.
- giantg2 5y agoAnd it's likely thar at least some of those grievances where born out of misconduct by the company. Bringing us back to my position that all companies lie and screw over workers, that the ones that look good just mean you aren't witnessing it.
- sbarre 5y agoFind me any situation anywhere in the world where there are no bad actors. Companies are made up of people, this happens everywhere. You're just describing life. This is not a problem specific to "companies".
- cacois 5y agoWould you ever expect that for anything? There are always going to be disgruntled employees/customers. if I see 100% positive, I'm usually looking for the scam.
