My p.o.v. as a user:
I do not sign up at such sites. I do not make relevant decisions based on such websites.
I would be absolutely OK with complete lack of verification.
Again, user perspective: You will never get a grasp of the exact work culture at some potential employer by reading subjective comments. As a user i simply take in hints of red flags which i would validate or negate personally by having a chat with some of the folks.
- goethes_kind 4y agoI hate sign ups too. As a project trying to be as streamlined as possible I will implement a submit-once form. I just need input from users just once and that is it. I am not sure about no verification? Wouldn't I just get a lot of kids pretending they work at Google? >You will never get a grasp of the exact work culture at some potential employer by reading subjective comments.

I know, but in this particular application it will be more impatial than the usual "disgruntled employees having the most motivation to comment" scenario.
- jand 4y agoWhat harm would braggy kiddies do? I see the greatest potential harm in companies trying to "polish" their cracked external image. And for them, "employee-status" verification should be easy to circumvent. edit: Even disgruntled employee has a legitimate contribution to make.
- goethes_kind 4y agoMaybe you are right. I guess I will just build it with the purpose of showing something on my github rather than as a serious product. But in this particular application it wouldn't work if too many people mess with the data.
