Talk:Bain & Company/Archives/2020

Tags

The page has tags on it saying it reads like an advert, has weasel words, etc. I presume the tags are referring to this portion in the Lead:

"it is seen as one of the most prestigious employers in the industry. The firm provides advice to public, private, and non-profit organizations. Widely praised for its corporate culture, Bain & Company has been ranked #1 in Glassdoor's Best Places to Work awards a record-setting four times (2012, 2014, 2017, 2019)."

Most of this page has been closely vetted, but I think this content is new. I believe @GermanJoe: has been trying to keep the Glassdoor stuff off and @North8000: has agreed, though I could be misremembering. In any case, I suggest addressing the tags by trimming this content. CorporateM (Talk) 20:46, 8 April 2020 (UTC)

The actual content is a bit different, I believe you quoted from an old article version? Nevertheless I agree, the whole part except the "The firm provides advice ..." sentence should be removed (PR speak, undue weight, and misrepresenting the actual article content which contains both positive and negative aspects) and possibly replaced with something more relevant and encyclopedic. I don't believe that some Glassdoor results are the third-most relevant fact about this company, as they are currently presented in the lead. Sulfurboy added these tags last time - could you clarify your concern please? Some of it may be obvious, but it would help to pinpoint the main issues. GermanJoe (talk) 06:23, 9 April 2020 (UTC)

Most of the article is OK and recent changes may have fixed the issues, which may themselves have been recent additions. I don't think that a top level tag is / remains in order. North8000 (talk) 14:18, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
