You’ve heard it before that to get what you want you need to know what you want. Never more true in the pursuit of a job. You could be a software engineer looking for a vibrant place to pursue your craft, but you’ve been burned by toxic work environments and/or toxic bosses. So do you roll the dice again and hope that what’s portrayed in the interview is really an accurate representation of the organization? There is hope in reducing the consequences of the "gamble."
Certainly, social networking is a big help in seeing the face behind the face. But eBossWatch.com is taking things a step further. They’ve introduced an online jobs board called jerk-free jobs. I highly recommend you look at the site and the mission behind it. If you’re looking for a job it could help you, and if you’re not you’ll get a taste of what is happening in the workplace.
The founder of eBoss is on mission. Let’s join him in the movement to make the workplace a jerk-free experience. Besides, you and organization will be more successful when jerk managers are sent out to pasture.
