Does anyone in Cambodia use Glassdoor or other sites to check out employers?

I've been looking at different job opportunities and tried checking out places with www.glassdoor.com, but it looks like not many people are using it here. I can only find a few local companies which have more than 3 reviews, which include some highly rated places (Smart) and some not so much (This Life Cambodia). Am I using glassdoor wrong? Or are there any other sources of independent information on employers in Cambodia? I mean, other than scrolling back through all the posts on this site?

The best is to check thoroughly the forums, and check Google "NameOfCompany" + critics / scam to see what is told around.

You can ask the main Job annoncers (BongThom and else) about the company reliability, maybe they could bring some information.

Cambodia is a little bit to small & fucked up for GlassDoor statistics, i believe...Asking foreigners is safer than locals for sure.

It seems like you could just post a query here asking if anyone has any knowledge, experience or opinion about a particular company. In most cases, you probably wouldn't get much info but you never know.

Like Ghostwriter mentions above, this kind of western-oriented website (glassdoor) doesn't really apply to countries like Cambodia.

Anyway, there's also a search function in the upper right-hand corner. You could try that as well.

When you go for the interview and the guy interviewing you has close cropped hair, tattoos and looks like bulldog chewing a thistle, I think you can deduce enough about the company to draw your own conclusions.
