employeesfyi··on Show HN: Employees.fyi – Easily compare U.S. workforce demographic data
Thanks for checking it out and taking the time to comment!

We are considering expanding the reference column to have more options, including population and CBSA (core-based statistical area). The idea of limiting it to "population employed/seeking employment" is certainly a way to mitigate some of the challenges of providing a general population comparison.

Simple yet valuable. We will look at doing so on wider viewports!

We definitely want to make it as easy as possible to do those comparisons and understand the data. For example, adding an additional selector to further tune the comparison as you are suggesting is definitely on the list.

Thanks for the feedback and for checking out the site!

We are considering expanding the reference column to have more options, including population and CBSA (core-based statistical area). This would also align with some of the aggregate data available from the EEOC. For example, companies could be compared against the "New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ-PA Metropolitan Statistical Area".
