01
Tell the truth.
Specific is stronger than general. Dates, policies, and patterns you witnessed firsthand carry weight. Vague accusations do not.

Employee Call to Action
Tired of being underpaid and told how to vote to protect the owner's interests?
Tired of watching twenty-year people walk out or get fired because the company does not reward time or loyalty?
Tired of your medical conditions, race, and body type discussed behind your back by the people who are supposed to protect them?
Tired of being called family when it's anything but?
If any of this sounds familiar,
Write the review you've been meaning to write.
The next buyer and the next hire will read whatever the public record says. Make sure it says something.
The company is likely being prepared for sale. Buyers and prospective hires read the same thing first, and if the public record is silent, the version that survives is the one written by the people selling the place.
Reviews are how current and former employees, clients, and vendors document what working with this agency was actually like. They are read by the people deciding whether to take the job, sign the contract, or buy the company.
Your review does not need to be long. It does not need to be angry. It needs to be true.
Before you write
02
Mark opinion as opinion.
"In my experience," "it felt like," "I believe." Opinion is protected. Stated as fact, the same sentence is exposure.
03
Write from your own seat.
What you saw, what you were told, what you were asked to do. Skip what you heard secondhand.
04
Stand behind every word.
Even on anonymous platforms, write what you could put your name on. If you would not, do not.
Where to write
Glassdoor
The platform buyers and recruiters read first. Anonymous, structured, with a tenure question that makes it hard for leadership to dismiss the review as fake. Carries the most weight in a sale.
Review on GlassdoorIndeed
Lower barrier than Glassdoor. Job seekers scan quickly, so the headline and the star rating do most of the work before anyone reads the body. Make the headline carry the point.
Review on IndeedPublic and tied to your Google account, so less anonymous than the others. Surfaces in the search panel any time the company name is queried. Best fit for clients and vendors.
Review on GoogleYelp
Moderated more aggressively than the others. Reviews that read as venting tend to get filtered. Specific, calm, dated, and rooted in a concrete interaction holds up best.
