Glad to know CaSM chose the 75 minutes I was out of the house to post. GG, well played.
Happy for those who got it though. Prepare for $100/hr.

I missed it too

My brother is going ham on ebay/craigslist & asked if I wanted to sell anything. Thinking about getting rid of my MP980 Canon printer. I haven't used it in over 8 months, but I feel like the second I sell it I'll need to print something, lol.

how accurate are glassdoor reviews when they have under 20 reviews for a company?

Pizza was the right choice.

I wouldn't. All our printers are Canon's, mainly because they can use aftermarket ink which is a lot cheaper. Had 2 epsons and ruined them both with aftermarket ink. HP's ink would go dry quicker. At least with the Canon's the cartridges are clear so you can see what's left.

I'm sure there are exceptions, but they seem fairly accurate. I base this opinion on looking up ratings for former employers, and seeing the same issues mentioned that caused me to leave a place. I also never trust the super-happy-everything-is-wonderful reviews that are outliers to the oh-god-do-not-work here mass of reviews and sort of take that into account.

You kind of have to approach them like with TO ratings, and sort of compare the good and the bad to find the middle.

Bleh, having to look at getting a lawyer for disability stuff.
Taking all my energy lately to even think about that.
And I have 2 tickets to a concert that I can't go to that I really want to get rid of. Like why do I have these?!
But it's a lot of work to figure out who to get them to, too.
But at least I occasionally panda surveys and penny hits still so I get like a little bit of money while doing this nonsense.

I literally only got those two 5s.

Did anyone get that Instagram qual?

I failed.

And that ten minute estimate was some bullshit.

Yeah mine was 28min and I submitted with 4min to spare.

The third (or fourth) page to the end had said something to the effect that I had answered all questions correctly up to that point. Then the end page message said that I had appropriately answered the questions for the HIT. I think it still needs to be reviewed (the written answer portion), so who knows if I got it or not.

Ah, yeah...that does happen with some of the positions and with salaries for some positions as well. Indeed.com also has company reviews, so you may see if they have one for the position you need for that company. Oh, and I just found this which has a list of company review sites. Hope either of those help you find what you need.

And thank you... I might not have considered looking elsewhere for reviews for prospective employers, had we not had this conversation. I like kind of knowing what I'm getting into with a company, after some bad burns in the past.

Thanks for the warning. I was going to grind these out. Now I'll stop at the 42 I did already.
