Within two years we'll see some of these sites snapped up by the job search majors, but only those sites that provide employers the chance to offer a balanced viewpoint. HotJobs, Dice, etc. make their money from employers, not employees. The majors will have to add reputable employee feedback someday, and will do so through a purchase, but they won't buy one that is just a bitch site. They won't bite the hand that feeds them.

Also, they want you to post from work? They should at least run the site over https - most companies worth reading about will have firewalls and proxies, and have the ability to review what sites workers were on and what they typed into a web form. There is nothing safe about this site at all. The site is pretty lame, companies aren’t even indexed by name. Also, they want you to post from work?
