Which company would you prefer to join?

  • You might want to add a simple description of each company. I don't know half of them and in this dopamine shot optimized format, I don't really have the patience to research every one of them in a different tab.

  • Weird that the reasons don't include anything about the actual work. The work I envisage doing is a much more important reason than, say, prestige to me.

  • Would need an option "to not join the other" when asking why.

  • Wow. The selection of companies is dire. I can't say I'd want to work for any of the companies I saw within the first ten rounds.

  • Should maybe add "brand recognition" or something like that.

    Some of these companies, I only know by name. And if I'm stuck between two unknown companies, I'll go with the one that I've seen the most. Not really prestige, but because their branding / exposure / whatever.

  • "Tesla or TikTok" ....yeesh

  • Hey HN, owner of the companymatches.com here

    We weren’t quite expecting this much love… We just exceeded our free egress limit today (and this post contributes to a big portion for sure)

    If things start acting weird, that’s why. Thanks for the interest — and the brutally honest feedback.

    Feel free to keep voting on the site. And let us know what you'd like to see next.

  • Clicking on the top companies on the leaderboard, top reason given for most wins is Prestige (over Compensation, Mission, Career Growth, etc.).

    I wonder how accurate that self-reporting is.

    How many of the people saying Prestige are thinking career growth? What does prestige get you that's more important than career growth? (Consolation prize for parents who wanted you to become a doctor?)

  • "Which company would you prefer to join if you had extensive info about all those companies" would be a more appropriate title.

    I clicked hoping it's some sort of quiz about what i prefer to work on and how work is done, that will eventually recommend me a few companies.

  • Hard to say when I don't know the details. I prefer Work Life Balance and the people, but how would I know if MongoDB .. or whoever, is a fit?

  • The list is actually missing the only two companies I ever dreamed of joining. Red Hat and Gitlab. Never made it, but I was close with RedHat.

  • you forget one option: non of them. all are soulless and burn people to make money with products not needed

  • So... it's Hot or Not, but with a two-point scale and for companies, rather than people?

  • This is just a who’s-who of asshole companies.

  • AMD only wins 86% over McDonalds.
