Suppose you are offered a job at a company and you have to decide whether you should accept the offer. In an ideal world, along with the offer letter, the company should also share the reviews of the company from its current employees. It should tell you what is broken inside that its employees have advised to be fixed. They should let you talk to any employee to the company and let you ask them any question without the influence of HR.

Since the world is not ideal, we created Criticat. Criticat allows employees to anonymously review and advise their employers, prospective employees can pose questions to current employees and employees can discuss among themselves to form consensus over an issue.

Criticat aims to bridge the communication gap between the employer and employees and make the corporate world much more transparent.

How It started

After two rewarding years at Yahoo US, Shweta moved back to India. When searching for jobs, she found it almost impossible to learn about prospective companies, beyond what was on their website. She couldn’t find anything similar to “Amazon Reviews” for companies. This lack of transparency and an urge to bring a positive change inspired her to start Criticat - a platform for employees to review and advise their employer and to connect prospective employees with the current employees.
