A student came to the reference desk with a challenging question about United Airlines. She needed information about the corporate culture at the company, and the sources had to be from the past year. We checked several databases (and even blogs, using Nexis). There were a few interviews and a speech by an executive that were somewhat helpful.
We finally turned to Vault.com, a "career information" site, that is useful for examining the corporate culture of a company. The site includes employee surveys that can help prospective employees assess work environments. Students have free access to extended versions of answers to employee surveys using this link http://www.baruch.edu/careers/students/vault.com. When the student enters their email address on the Vault.com link here, they are sent a password that gives them access to the site. Thanks to Aisha for pointing this out.
