30 People Describe Bad Working Conditions In Twitter Thread Called The "Nobody Wants To Work Anymore" Starter Kit
Twitter users share how unfair their employers are.
You've probably seen complaints stating, “nobody wants to work anymore” in the news lately. With people's dwindling motivation during the pandemic, many are no longer applying for jobs.
This is why companies claim there is currently a talent shortage. However, what these businesses don't realize is that, in today's digital world, people have all the resources to research an employer before applying.
Naturally, if they come across a lot of negative information about a company, they will skip it and look for the next best option. According to Glassdoor, a site where both current and former employees review companies anonymously, 95% of their survey respondents agree that a company's reputation influences their decision to apply.
Yet, many companies remain unaware of their online reputation. They have no idea what's being said about them on job sites such as Glassdoor.
The company's poor working conditions and unreasonable expectations drive potential employees away. With the existence of Glassdoor and similar platforms, applicants no longer need to conduct extensive investigations to uncover a company's red flags.
Then we have this Twitter thread started by Janel Comeau that exposed some terrible job conditions. She named it the “nobody wants to work anymore” starter kit.
Other users began replying to the thread, sharing their experiences. Let's find out what they are.

They deserve those tips, though. Those are bonuses for a job they already performed.
