How false reviews affect companies
‘Company reviews’ influence 81% of talent recruitment
Online corporate reviews have now become an important factor in forming corporate image.

In particular, reviews that say ‘an environment in which growth is not possible’ become a major obstacle to applicants, causing them to ignore the company.
In fact, one company is said to have experienced a sharp decline in the number of applicants due to evaluations of ‘lack of system’ and ‘not a cooperative atmosphere’ written in reviews on its recruitment site.
However, according to the results of the investigation, the reviewer was a new employee who had worked at the company for only 4 months, and the content written was largely exaggerated.
These false reviews can be seen as clear business interference that weakens a company's competitiveness in hiring.
