About the source:

Companize.com is a social network, mapping out corporations reputation as seen by their employees and other citizens. The latest news and information concerning a company's reputation, such as environmental scandals, data misuse and awards won for being a fair employer are displayed and rated by the networks users. One mouse click shows if they perceive a certain information as negative or positive. As an employee of an evaluated corporation, you can also give your opinion about their employer performance. Whether a company scores green, amber or red depends on the number of "image points" they score. Those 33% of companies that score best at companize receive green. The 33% worst companies receive red and the centre span receives amber. The source is considered “soft” and therewith has a onefold impact on the Sustainability Footprint. There is one exception to that if more than five notifications about a company exist. In this case the source is considered “medium”.More detailed information can be found on our methodology page.
