The real 4D chess move is fake negative reviews of your own company that are so unreasonable in content they cast doubt on other negative reviews. This seems like an unsolvable problem with online reviews in general. However I generally find Google Maps reviews for restaurants fairly reliable. You'd think with the amount of data they slurp up they could cut out fake reviews based on location data alone. Maybe it's just confirmation bias on my end though.

Fairly solvable with an actual identity/employment verification system, and that's not exactly an exotic idea.

  For something like Glassdoor, the problem is you risk being fired if you identify yourself and the info leaks or is sold. Can you trust them not to sell it?

    It would be great to be able to prove your employment without identifying yourself. In a company with 1000+ employees it would work especially well. Too bad the employer would be an adversary here.

    > info leaks Exactly. Do you really want to trust your ability to keep paying your bills to Glassdoor's infosec? In return for nothing but the satisfaction of speaking your mind to an audience of non-responsive strangers?
