[ale] [ALE-jobs] Systems Technical Analyst- RHEL

[Scott Steele]

I think it's important to have somewhat of a "watch-dog" attitude;
when it comes to companies posting for positions on the ale-jobs
board. It's also more helpful for those of us who have worked at these
companies to relay information on their personal experiences.

Glassdoor can be a useful resource if your're researching companies
you maybe potentially considering signing onboard with.
