Reviews of employers?

September 30, 2009 9:27 AM

What are best forums/websites where people post about their work experiences and about the pros and cons of various employers?

I'm doing short term contract work in the Dallas area (financial and tax compliance stuff), going from job to job every three or four months, being placed by different recruiters. Working in some real dysfunctional places comes with the territory, but I do like to know what I’m walking into.

So I was looking around for forums and discussion groups where people essentially review their employers. I’ve come across several, but I figured somebody here has already found the good ones. And I do realize that most of these sites would attract disgruntled and negative types, but I can read between the lines.

Thanks for your help!

Have you tried glassdoor.com? It seems new-ish, but it's catching on, I think.

Try jobvent.com

Also, on indeed.com you can check the boards for particular companies and ask questions.
