That is the part that is craziest to me. They took a software developer (Sunny Balwani) who had an information systems degree and plopped him down to run a life sciences company like it was nbd. I th…

Have you read the article on disability being the new welfare for blue collar workers in middle america? I suspect that's already filling the gap. http://apps.npr.org/unfit-for-w…

> The day old.reddit goes away is the day I stop using reddit, period. Me too! I'll be super happy about it, though. Will break my reddit addiction and principal time sink once and for all. …

Not to mention the savings account on the side you have to start building to buy your options when you resign! I never factored that in until I realized I had to come up with $15k on the spot to quit…

"We're sorry that we got caught."

They generally only do that on positive-spin articles, not the negative or bad PR ones.

We've stayed in an airbnb in Bolinas, which has been a tourist spot since Bolinas has been renting out places since before the internet before the halcyon hippie days of SF. It seems like the to…

You could try this book. It's pretty simple "common sense" stuff but if you read it and follow the instructions it actually does work. It basically cured my depression without meds. …

I worked with a woman whose father owned the company and she openly bragged to us she was dating a guy a Glassdoor and had him remove all our company's negative reviews.

> Now we use online services and trust people blindly... It's also so shockingly to create a fake profile and hire people off of reddit slavelabour to write you good reviews. And meanwhile th…

I agree with this, it's an obvious train wreck. Dog walkers have to be known and trusted. Our neighbors suspected something was wrong with their dog walker because their dog was suddenly really…

imo it's better to find your job first, and then plan your housing around your commute. You might get a job based on the Peninsula or the south bay. In that case you might want to live closer t…

I just finished the audiobook of American Kingpin and LOVED IT. Nonfiction that reads like a thriller. Very well done and the narration was also excellent (which also comes into play a lot for audio…

How is this news? Thought it was always a known fact they manipulate reviews to drive sales. So does Glassdoor (seen it in person).

> Do people really use voice commands for, well, anything? I was recently getting a dental procedure done and the Periodontist kept using Alexa while he was treating me. "Alexa, play the Eagl…

We switched to Walmart and jet.com after repeatedly getting fake makeup and counterfeit beauty products from Amazon. Anything that's fake and goes on or inside your body is just too risky, imo.

This is why I hold on to my iPhone 6 like it's precious and won't install any software updates so as not to kill the battery. I have bluetooth headphones but they're a pain to charge a…

Why not? He was petty enough to create a chick-hotness ranking software as revenge after getting rejected by Ashley Arenson at Phillips Exeter. His whole career trajectory has been one of building u…

imo most people fake it, so you're mainly self-filtering for people who are good actors.

This reminds me of the youtube beauty gurus who will get paid 25k to give a positive review of the client's product, but can make 85k from the same client for leaving a negative review of a compe…

Totally agree. After watching what the poor admins at our company have to go through weekly just to keep the office fridge from having abandoned rotting food in it to getting everyone to load their us…

I think what the comment was saying is that young people are the only ones delusional enough to drink the coolaid and be happy working countless hours for crappy insurance, fake stock grants and a bal…

Not to mention the anxiety you feel when you open up the packaging and there was just so much waste. Every time I opened up a meal delivery service meal I just felt like I was killing the environment…

^^ Christ. This is so accurate AND so depressing.

Because I worry apps are invasive and run a bunch of stuff scraping my data that I don't want them know about. At least when I use the website on my mobile phone I can close it when I'm don…

Love this! Would love to see it expanded to include the pharmaceutical and biotech industries.

My old company which was a horrible place to work run by evil corrupt rich scumbags. The glassdoor reviews were poor and justified. The owners daughter started dating someone high up at Glassdoor an…

I don't even think "seeing things" is why most millennial travel. They travel to show off that they are traveling on their instagram and facebook feeds. To that end, virtual reality m…
