They don’t pay much but that’s pretty much the case everywhere. They are extremely accommodating and love me. I really don’t care if other people have complaints. I love my day job and have no serious complaints yet we have few people who biatch all the time about things. That’s why I don’t care about work place reviews. I don’t think they are accurate

I’d probably still go for interviews just for practice
I take them seriously. That’s one job you speak of that luckily turned out well for you. When I read multiple reviews from multiple people all saying the same things, I take it as valid. I’m not taking any chances. I’ve had enough toxic work environments. And when less than 40% of employees approve of the CEO from 500+ people? And when more than five people say it’s a toxic CEO and work culture? I listen.
