Surfing earlier, I found this site has a list of corporations and businesses that have activist stances of various types. I can recall people on SF wanting to find a big list of these type of companies.
2nd Vote There are probably other sites that do this, I just never saw this before.
I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all. -Ecclesiastes 9:11 August 12, 2017, 06:42 PM
tatortoddMy employer is on there and it's completely misrepresenting them. We're extremely conservative but getting lots of 1s and 2s.
The most egregious misrepresentation is that we have corporate matching charitable donations. For example, they've matched my donation to Christian charities that would make the top of an atheist's head pop off. However, if an employee gives to a lefty organization and the company matches then my employer is getting dinged as liberal by that website.

That's a good point, I would have never thought of that.

AKSuperDuallyI would think that corporate donation programs like Fred Meyer Community Rewards and Amazon Smile would end up not being really fairly represented, for similar reasons as Todd mentioned.
