Hate it. Gave my employer a bad review, 1-2 stars in most categories, and the average was still a 3.7?? I have to adjust my intuition when reading star reviews. Apparently 3.5 is bottom of the barrel.
The good news is: that reviews wasn’t really accurate.
The bad news is: that review wasn’t really anonymous.
My last day is Friday. :)
I've tried my best during the last seven years to make a change, both by lobbying upper management and introducing change in my team. Nothing stuck, nobody besides my team mates cared. So I hope it's not really anonymous. I'm clinging to the illusion they'll somehow take it to heart now that it's public, for the betterment of the team mates I leave behind.
I don't understand, are you inferring the reviews do not accurately represent the results?
I don't think 3.7 stars accurately describes my experience in that company, yes. But that means that the meaning I gave to what 3.7 stars feels like is not what the company feels like, mostly because my 'lowest' would be 0 stars. In my world, 2.5 stars is 50% - but crucially it's not, 3 stars is 50%. That's why I have to recalibrate my feelings of the star system.
