Aggressive content that targets an individual maliciously and/or is deliberately disrespectful (e.g., attacking a user in a way that wouldn’t be appropriate in a work setting).

Content that interrupts a productive conversation by being overly pessimistic, rather than civil and constructive (e.g., being highly critical of a company or individual without context).

Kindly let the author know when their negativity has crossed a line into disrupting the community.

Drawing a line between honesty and negativity

Content that violates your privacy or the privacy of others (e.g., someone’s identity is revealed against their will).

Content that indicates a member of the Fishbowl community is a danger to themselves or others (e.g., sharing personal info about a co-worker that could lead to their expulsion).

Offensive words or statements targeting a specific group of people.

Glassdoor has many communities, including social topics and referrals. If you know a Bowl that is better suited for this conversation, suggest it kindly to the author.

Suggest a more relevant Bowl

Offensive content you think was posted deliberately to hijack the conversation and upset an individual or group (e.g., making a subject polarizing).
