Research Summary

The purpose of the research is to inform hiring managers of the takeaways from studying the top 10 Canadian companies Glassdoor reviews, to draw a connection with what makes workers happy. The project will be looking at the differences in Glassdoor reviews between the common traits of what people put as pros of working at an organization and the cons. Glassdoor was specifically chosen as the data is collected anonymously. I looked specifically focused on looking for traits such as happiness traits of meaningful work, alignment of workers’ values and corporate social responsibility (CSR). Human emotions also were focused on needs and wants, and overall satisfaction.
