It's that time of the year when all companies boast about their "Best Places to Work" recognition. 🥇 Unfortunately, these accolades don't always align with the experiences of actual candidates and employees. While a company may appear to be the "best place to work" on paper, it's important to remember that culture is not just about perks and benefits. It's about the values, attitudes, and behavior that a company exhibits daily. Companies need to be transparent about their culture and the day-to-day experiences of their employees. Candidates should be encouraged to speak with current employees and not just rely on the accolades and awards a company may have received. They should also always check platforms where current and former employees can share anonymous reviews, ratings, and insights about their experiences working at a company. #employerbranding #companyculture #bestplacetowork #transparency #candidateexperience
