suggestion box
Anonymous input container
A suggestion box is a container, physical or digital, where people can submit ideas, feedback, or complaints, typically in a workplace or organization.
The traditional form is a locked box with a slot for anonymous written notes.
The term often carries a slightly cynical connotation, as suggestion boxes are sometimes seen as gestures toward employee input that rarely lead to actual change.
Management installed a suggestion box, but nobody expects them to read what goes in it.
