Pros

I would highly recommend Glassdoor. They have smart folks at the helm driving in the right direction. It may have taken a turn at the start of COVID, but they are on the right path now. As Darwin wrote, "It's not the fastest or strongest species that survives, it's the one that adapts to change the best" Glassdoor has done that. I have an enormous amount of respect and appreciation for the folks there, CSW, Kate, etc. I'm grateful for all of the development, mentorship, and growth while watching the company scale. There are truly good eggs who really care about employees.

Cons

I think that it's important to understand that no company is perfect, and although there were certainly challenging times, all-in-all the good outweighed the bad significantly. Looking back with fond memories on a cool place to work.

Pros

It's a mission driven company -- feels good to be doing something good for the world (theoretically)

Cons

The pay is very mediocre... that was okay given that work / life balance was pretty good. But, 60 hour weeks has become the norm. It's gotten political. Execs are leaving left at an alarming rate...

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Glassdoor is a mission driven company - helping job seekers find a job and company they love and I'm happy to hear that our mission has resonated with you. A foundational component of Glassdoor is also transparency. Earlier this year, we provided insight into our Compensation Philosophy - which one can find on our blog - which highlights that we target the 65th percentile as midpoint for salaries of non-technical roles and the 75th percentile as midpoint for technical roles. And no doubt, 2020 has been a challenging year with a global pandemic, moving to working remotely full time, and social justice taking a prominent role. Within Glassdoor, these changes were also layered upon a strategy shift and a focus on radical transparency. In addition to salary transparency, we have also focused on transparency into: diversity data and metrics, pulse (employee engagement) results, and promotion transparency to provide employees and candidates alike the insights and information they need to navigate their careers. Despite the changes that 2020 has brought us, we are excited about the progress we've made in these areas and the future impact we can have to help those at Glassdoor and everywhere love their job.

Doing the absolute best that can be expected in response to COVID. Leadership clearly focused on the next chapter of the company and future of the industry in general. Not a stagnant company in terms of product and engineering Growing inventory of products with the potential to really expand the Glassdoor community of users and create transparency in the workplace.

Cons

Thanks for taking the time to drop us a review! When our hiring teams bring talent to Glassdoor, alignment with our mission is always top of mind. It's wonderful to hear you felt buy-in around the company for what we have the responsibility of doing each and every day for job seekers around the world. Your feedback regarding clarity around career pathing is a great piece of advice that our leadership also heard in our most recent Pulse survey. We are working diligently with our people leaders to better communicate to employees their pathing, and map their long-term growth at Glassdoor. Thanks again for all you bring to Glassdoor!
