When a site is as big as SO you can never fit all the people all of the time.
1. It's community run
2. they make their money through legitimate means of job ads which fits perfectly
3. the ads they do have are to community voted places eg Sheldon Brown from cycling SE
4. It's about as transparent as you can get
5. The people with the most points almost always really know their shit
6. It's one of the few places on the Internet you can make yourself marketable by being helpful. I can prove my knowledge to potential companies through my answers
