Employer wants some of us to take the Culture Index survey in order to establish a baseline for culture fit. They say it’s anonymous. I doubt it. Thoughts? Experiences with this?

I work for an E-Commerce firm with a very startup-esque feel. I am in a mid level Operations role for Warehouse/Logistics. Recently, our HR person (who comes across as untrustworthy) has been pushing for automated hiring platforms and now the Culture Index Survey.

I received an email to my company account asking me to take the Culture Index Survey. It was sent from the CEO. I know for a fact that many folks didn’t get asked to do it. It seems like a number of lower performers weren’t asked to do it.

I have several reservations about the whole thing.

1) I think that lot’s of pre-employment tests/hoops to jump through, scare off good candidates. They are generally a waste of time (imo) and qualified candidates will likely bail early on. Especially since “startups” don’t often pay competitively.

2) I would never have taken it if I saw that as a requirement during hiring. Why take it now? What’s to be gained?

3) Since the request came to my company email, I highly doubt it’s anonymous, as they claim. That alone is a significant red flag to me.

Has anyone had any experience with the Culture Index Survey? Do you think it’s anonymous, as I was told?

Thanks for your feedback.
