Glassdoor Provides Inside Information Regarding Employee Satisfaction
If you’ve ever wondered how it would be like to work for Yahoo!, Google, Microsoft or any of the prominent IT companies, a new website might give you a clue. Glassdoor allows employees to anonymously enter feedback regarding their respective companies and give other people insight regarding their workplace. Here’s how it works:
Glassdoor sets up a way for people to rate the companies they work for — anonymously, of course. A Microsoft employee can respond to a survey of 16 questions about job satisfaction, enter information about his or her salary, reply to essay-style questions, and give CEO Steve Ballmer an approval rating. In exchange, the employee would get full access to the site — a “give to get” formula intended to convince people to participate.
You can already imagine the potential impact of this. Employees can finally give their companies (and their bosses) either their deserved recognition or get some measure of revenge. Here’s to the ensuing chaos that is nearly guaranteed to follow.
