Hello there,
Over the course of my last 4 jobs I've been severely misled by each employer during the interview phase.
I've been told all these great things about the company, which has lead to my decision to join them, only to learn when starting that a large portion of what I was told was complete bull*^*#. In many cases I have done significant background research (obviously not enough) however there's only so much you can learn from the outside of an organisation.
Anyone have any ideas on what kind of recourse is available for this type of misleading conduct? It is quite common in my industry and I really am getting sick and tired of it.

what kind of organisation did you involve?
Not much you can do really. Did they put anything in writing? If so it may be a breach of the employment contract.

It's in the IT sector…
The statements I'm referring to are the claims made about company performance, culture, and such. These things are usually not put in a contract.
I agree, not much you can do.

You are not the only to experience that kind of issue and the sad truth is you can't really do anything about it. The employers are just too much to handle that is.
