Blind is all toxic. My former company had some good parts and bad parts, but the conversation on Blind was 100% negative. If I were trying to get a sense of what working at a company was really like, Blind would not be a great place to go.
It was a great place to vent, though.

Tons of people who like stuff leave positive reviews, and frequently leave evidence they have low standards or are not good at evaluating quality.
