The Problem

In today’s professional landscape, job seekers and career professionals face a significant challenge: no platform provides a safe space for real, honest conversation.

Most real conversations happen in private settings (e.g., 1:1 chats, near watercoolers) because, on professional networking platforms, there’s a fear of judgment and potential repercussions when sharing their true opinions publicly. This is increasingly leading to:

  • Lack of Authentic Conversations: Important topics such as salary, manager issues, company policies, workload, and genuine career advice are not being discussed openly.
  • Transactional Interactions: Existing platforms focus on networking and job postings, missing the mark on fostering meaningful career conversations.

Our Solution

To address this gap, we have launched Communities on AmbitionBox — a safe, anonymous space for honest career conversations with verified professionals.

  • Join Dedicated Communities: Engage in communities tailored to your field, whether it’s Software, Banking, Design, and more.
  • Discuss Sensitive Topics Openly: Feel secure discussing salaries, workplace issues, layoffs, and other sensitive topics.
  • Learn from True Experiences: Gain insights from the real experiences of others and find genuine support and advice.

I have been working on this from last year and it has been a crazy journey of mistakes, learning and a lot of figuring out.✨

Ready to join the conversation? Download the AmbitionBox app on Playstore and join the conversation.
