If your employer assaulted, discriminated against, or harassed you, would you be able to file a lawsuit against them? Probably not! After witnessing this firsthand, we decided to launch AgreementGrade.com, a website that calls out and grades companies on the fairness of their employee agreements.
Our research has shown that around 90% of Fortune 500 companies require employees to sign employment agreements with mandatory arbitration clauses, which circumvent the rights and protections given to us by the U.S. Constitution. This was one of the major factors behind the recent Google walkout and protest by over 20k of their employees.
We've spent the last couple of years researching and building our company/website to help people make better decisions when choosing their next employer. We know we still have a lot of work to do but after completing our review of the Fortune 500, we wanted to ask for feedback from the community.
