The Org is the world's biggest network of public org charts. Join us on our mission to make organizations more transparent!
This product is a hard no for me. While it may have been intended to be useful to understand company hierarchies, it was not planned well. The platform often includes incredibly outdated and inaccurate information, which renders it invaluable to their target audience who have to double check other sources. Creating organizational charts through data scraping raises some serious ethical and legal questions. This reliance on potentially sensitive, non-public data can compromise the privacy of organizations and their employees who did not consent to their information being shared. Making these "charts" so accessible leaves companies vulnerable to phishing attacks, as bad actors could easily use this information to target employees. This creates a false sense of security, making it easier for scams to slip through the cracks.
