Draft Community Guidelines

Guiding Principle

Our community exists to give women an honest and accurate picture of workplaces. We encourage open, honest sharing, including on difficult topics like discrimination, pay gaps, and harassment - but not every way of saying something is equally protected.

What's Allowed and Encouraged

• An honest description of a personal work experience - positive or negative
• Discussion of organizational policy, culture, and decision-making processes
• Stating factual data (for example: "there are no women in leadership," "pay gaps between departments")
• General discussion of phenomena like discrimination, sexual harassment, or unfair treatment - at the level of factual description, not personal defamation

What's Prohibited

1. Obscenity, threats of violence, discriminatory language toward a person or group
2. Content that isn't honest - a review that doesn't reflect the writer's genuine experience
3. Publishing the names of non-senior employees in a negative context (senior managers/founders - most exposed to legitimate public criticism; a junior employee - not)
4. Disclosure of confidential information (trade secrets, internal data, identifying client information)
5. Content posted as advertising, or containing irrelevant external links
6. Extensive quotation from external sources (emails, documents) - write it in your own words

Keeping the Tone Constructive

Practical advice for writers: prefer a factual, focused description over a general expression of anger. "The company employs 0 women in leadership" is stronger and holds up better under moderation than "they're terrible!!!" - not because the feeling isn't legitimate, but because concrete facts are both more persuasive and more legally protected.

Moderation and Enforcement Process

• Every review goes through initial screening (automatic and/or manual, depending on the development stage)
• Any user can report content that seems to her to violate the rules
• Reported content is reviewed within [X business days]
• First violation → a warning; repeated violations → account restriction or suspension

Company Response Policy

The platform maintains neutrality in factual disputes between a user and an employer, and does not rule on who is right - it only enforces compliance with these guidelines, as also set out in the Terms of Use.

Reporting Harmful Content

Any user (including a company representative) can contact [report email address] to report content she believes violates these guidelines. The request will be reviewed by the platform's team, and weighed against any legal order or request as required by law.
