The reinvention is to feature exclusively pictures of attractive female employees?

Cool demo.<p>Couple points of feedback:<p>-the word description is bigger than the explore button. I don't think having the word description there is even necessary - it's obvious you're describing each of those companies in that section. I'd make the explore button a little flashier.<p>-navigation is confusing. Maybe make each of the images open up in a light box instead of creating a new page?<p>-The layout of all of the elements is a bit confusing - I feel like I'm on an infographic without any method to the madness. You clearly have different sections in here, office pictures, employee testimonials, available jobs, etc. Some sort of order might be helpful, even if it's just a tabbed interface. Might be worth trying out.<p>Hope that helps - I really like it. The guys at InternMatch are doing a similar thing for companies (<a href="http://www.internmatch.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.internmatch.com</a>), but they seem focused on college students vs. active full time job seekers.

is there a reason why it seems women almost exclusively work in management* type roles and not production roles? It could be that this website is bias with who it listed and the roles they're in, but assuming it isn't and this is a representative sample: why are women in tech startups always management?<p>*management of people and things, positions I saw listed: account manager, executive assitant, marketing director, vp of communications, product manager, director of marketing, public relations, never developer or engineer or designer.

I dig the design. It's fun to get an "at a glance" comparison of a bunch of companies.<p>Re, content, though: Ugh, giant, open, noisy, productivity-killing spaces. No bueno. A few places <i>not</i> to work.

Minor nitpick: Fonts render weird on chrome/win7. Screenshot: <a href="http://i.imgur.com/OXJUn.png" rel="nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/OXJUn.png</a>

Very nice!<p>Couple of notes:<p>• Why not create a custom title tag for each company rather than using "5 Inspiring Places to Work brought to you by The Daily Muse" for each one,<p>• If I click get updates, I can't close the sign in box.<p>• Shouldn't clicking on a help wanted note, link me directly to the job rather than their jobs page?<p>• It'd be nice to have some type of hover effect applied to the images

Yay, I made the cut, if you want to hear me talk about the Table of Wonders at Kiva, it's near the center here <a href="http://companies.thedailymuse.com/kiva/office" rel="nofollow">http://companies.thedailymuse.com/kiva/office</a>

Except for the "Museo" font which I find unreadable, it seems nice and clean.

Not having a prominent direct link to the website of the company near the top of the profile seems like a gaffe. Why hinder access to the very company you're profiling?

Looking good. The design screams for a responsive layout though.

The tiles concept makes it really MS Metro like.
