I fully agree with your explanation Dan. In general I dislike the "air public grievances about $employer", because it's almost NEVER a level playing field: you can claim $anything, while your employer is usually legally restricted from replying for matters of privacy (which is good, by the way).

That said: maybe there should be a process for reporting disingenuous job ads? You removed the Meta one for example, and to be honest this complain does sound more than just "I had a negative experience" such as a bad interview, ghosting, or "I worked here and it was horrible".

It's not even formatted properly! IMHO this thread is objectively made worse by submissions like this.

The one I removed was not a Meta one but presumably someone trying to score referrals (>>37741749 ). That was an easy call because it broke the rules at the top, which could hardly be clearer on this point.

Removing misleading job ads by companies themselves is a totally different question. You'd need an entire investigation team, or length community discussions, to figure these things out, and even then a lot of the cases would be just messy. It's fairer and cleaner to everybody to leave this for readers to make up their own minds.

I mean, if we had a magic wand and could make all misleading ads go away while preserving all true ones, of course we would; but then with such a wand, that wouldn't be near the top of the list of things to take care of.

I get that it's hard, but clearly at some it's crossing a line, or so it seems to me? I don't think you need a dedicated team of advanced sleuths for that.

Anyway, not the biggest thing in the world; and I understand wanting to avoid drama, since you're already a (woke|Nazi|SJW|fascist) mod (or so I've been told...)
