4 Day Week vs We Work Remotely

If you want to know the pay before applying, We Work Remotely: 64.4% of its listings carry pay information against 44.1% for 4 Day Week. On volume it is 4 Day Week that is larger (1,119 vs 365 live listings).

Measured, side by side

Both boards read continuously over a rolling 30-day window. The bolded figure in each row is the stronger of the two for a job seeker — on description completeness and ghost rate, lower is better.

4 Day WeekWe Work Remotely
Live listings (30 days) 1,119 365
Distinct companies 236 178
Pay info in the listing 44.1% 64.4%
…in a field a machine can read 44.0% 49.3%
No usable description 10.5% 0.0%
Possible ghost jobs 0.2% 1.6%
Graded A or B by us 4.5% 52.3%
Genuinely location-free 0.1% 77.3%

Why the two pay columns differ

"Pay info in the listing" asks whether the salary appears anywhere in the posting. "In a field a machine can read" asks whether it sits somewhere a filter can reach. Where those diverge, the board has the number and buries it in prose — you can find it, but only by opening every listing.

We publish both because quoting only the parsed figure would report our own extraction limits as the board's failing.
