Unfortunately companies such as Digitec Galaxis are creating falsified positive reviews to boost their ratings on kanunu

paid by employers for employers, employers make money to kununu, so everything is rigged, they removed all negative compliants from my older company

This is a way for disgruntled employees to hit their employer back and this is how these reviews should be read. There is a huge difference between reality and the reviews written there

I've been monitoring a specific company profile on this platform and have witnessed a very concerning practice. Over time, all the negative reviews for this employer systematically vanished, leaving only the glowing, positive ones.
This strongly suggests that companies can pay to have critical feedback removed, which completely undermines the purpose of an "open" review platform. It makes Kununu an untrustworthy and unreliable source for anyone seeking genuine insight into a potential employer. I cannot recommend it.

The idea behind kununu is good, but its execution appears increasingly skewed. Paying companies gain more visibility and control over their image. Critical reviews often disappear, while positive ones appear in suspicious waves. The award system is based solely on short-term averages. There are growing concerns about true anonymity – this is not how trust is built.

This platform has lost all credibility. When you leave a review about a company, it feels like the company can simply pay to influence or bury negative feedback. In the end, the reviews seem more like marketing content written by the companies themselves rather than genuine employees experiences.

Not able to log in my account. It says temporary blocked when trying. However, for whatever reason it happened, I was not notified by kununu about the action

Companies can easily take down negative comments by commiting with misuse or manipulation.

Paid lias and everyone knows it here in Austria.

I was once unlucky enough to work in a very dangerous place, where workers are treated like slaves and work methods are criminal. No one could stand it for more than a year, and at best you received psychological trauma, and at worst, problems with the law. Within two years after my dismissal, I saw the appearance of 1* reviews, where people described familiar suffering. There were already at least 10 of them. All these reviews are deleted within a week - as I believe, at the request of the employer. And in the company profile there remain fake, sweet positive reviews that were written by the employer himself. Then no. Unfortunately, in Germany, where they are so afraid of problems with lawyers, such sites cannot be trusted.

Ich hatte einmal das Pech, an einem sehr gefährlichen Ort zu arbeiten, wo Arbeiter wie Sklaven behandelt werden und die Arbeitsmethoden kriminell sind. Niemand hielt es länger als ein Jahr aus, und im besten Fall erlitt man ein psychisches Trauma und im schlimmsten Fall Probleme mit dem Gesetz. Innerhalb von zwei Jahren nach meiner Entlassung sah ich das Auftauchen von 1-Sterne-Bewertungen, in denen Menschen vertrautes Leid beschrieben. Davon gab es bereits mindestens 10. Alle diese Bewertungen werden innerhalb einer Woche gelöscht – wie ich glaube, auf Wunsch des Arbeitgebers. Und im Firmenprofil bleiben gefälschte, süße positive Bewertungen, die vom Arbeitgeber selbst verfasst wurden. Dann nein. Leider kann man solchen Seiten in Deutschland, wo man große Angst vor Problemen mit Anwälten hat, nicht trauen.

I can only relate to all the negative reviews! Kununu pretends to be on the employee's side when it come to rating companies. Until now, I have made the experience that Kununu is on the employer's side and accepts any kind of feedback from companies in order to remove negative reviews. Kununu takes them down immediately, while (ex-)employees have to prove all the time that their opinion was true. Even, if you provide evidence, Kununu does not care at all! That's insane...

They are not neutral; they do not allow the reality of what happens at some firms to be expressed, removing negative comments and leaving only positive ones just to look good with them. For me, they have lost credibility, but I ask myself: why do they have a review page if they don't allow former employees to express themselves? We want people to know how the firm where we worked for years treated us so poorly, and we wanted to share our experiences honestly, but they blocked our reviews many times, and we are tired of the same thing. Therefore, we urge some of you not to waste your time on Kununu writing negative reviews because they will delete them and make you look bad!

Anything bad can easily be taken down and stays taken down.
I gave a medium review that also listed some bad aspects. Apparently the company complained about these (true!) details and thus it got taken down without question. I added more details (the other option would be to lie!), but it remains taken down.

They are a scam. I keep seeing reviews for bad companies disappearing. Don’t trust this website’s reviews - check glassdoor instead!

I wrote a review in English for my ex employer, I was asked to rewrite it other 10 times...then I decided to have a look at what others wrote in German and I saw the same comment but written in German... Well, I think this company is racist, that's all.

Kununu is an bad-employer-image washing machine. Kununu allowed my former employer to wash their image by deleting all critical reviews. Only left were the positive and ridiculously deceptive review(s) that paint a rose life in the company. Put zero trust in Kununu. I wish them a painful bankruptcy.

I had several comments from 2008-2018 from different companies about their, slavery style job. Contract for 30 hours or 40 but working more for example. The boss were abusive and another didn't pay the last check. All these review, real and honest, were removed.
I had a company in Germany, I think they offer me to have a profile there for €600 year or so. I guess that once you have an account, they wash your image.
On that website I was registered and writing my review with real name and email, nobody sued me, so means I was quite right. I wrote all my comment checked legally by a (friend) lawyer before.

Good bye Kununu, when I read you are giving the employer's my contacts I know it's over.

My experience with IPSER was top-notch. The team's personalized approach, deep industry knowledge, and excellent communication made the job search process seamless. They not only helped me secure a fitting job but also showed ongoing commitment to my career growth. Highly recommended for their professionalism and genuine care for clients' success.
