My cousin hired a company called Toscano Floor Designs in New York and the agreement states: Purchaser agrees not to attack/criticize or write negative reviews online about the seller. This should have been a red flag for what was about to come.

    I worked with an accountant for years and he got his ass bit by some asshole who left him a negative, and false, review.

    He added a clause on renewal contracts with new language saying you won’t leave a negative review and to arbitration.

    I told him I’m not signing this. I never leave reviews and I understand he’s trying to mitigate his losses and force arbitration but I told him that it wasn’t going to work.

      these companies, sued glassdoors once for letting badreviews, now glassdoors allows astroturfing of it, thats why they are doing it now. this happened around early pandemic. the employers are very much afraid of glasdoor, indeed or another site allow bad reviews of thier illegal or unethical behaviour. they want naive employees to exploit.
