Great Place to Work?

The entire Great Place to Work is a scam, right? One of those 'you pay, you claim' memberships. Can someone enlighten me?

Total scam. For the exact same reasons you mention.

Any such publicity list 30U30, 40U40, 50U50, ..... all pay for play / "strong recommendations".

I read a tweet a while back - Forbes US 30U30 list has cumulatively raised 6 bn and scammed people out of 18 bn.

It’s a scam. I work at a place that is certified great place to work. It is not a great place to work really.

Someone should start a 'mediocre place to work' or something. Much more realistic imo

Probably the idea was novel when it started out. While no company would remain perfect, it still helps to attract potential candidates.
