Hello All -

I'm not quite sure which forum to use, but since it's website requests, I chose Technology. For company research, particularly those who are not doing so well, I used to visit Fu**edCompany.com, but they have had recent hacking problems & haven't been updated since mid-July.

If I want to research into a company, particularly from the standpoint of future employment, which sites will give me the most info about US companies? I don't mean their biased company website, but the real bottom line on how they're doing, if they're hiring/outsourcing/laying off/firing, etc. Which would you use?

Thank you so much... VV

Greetings to you, too Shadow -

Thank you for the links. Most of these sites require fees for in-depth info, unfortunately. I lost a link for free, really in-depth company analysis several years ago, but searches haven't revealed it. But, thank you, this will tide me over in the meantime.

I'll let you know should I find it as perhaps it will be of use to you, too.

Have a great week... VV

and click on CorpWatch*:*Index

There are many other links that may be helpful.

Also, please feel free to PM me as I do a considerable amount of research.
