Grateful for Glassdoor

Pros

Working at Glassdoor allows me to work a corporate job but have the fulfillment of working for a company with a great purpose. Not only do I align to the mission of our company, but I appreciate that our leadership is taking bold strides in transparency (like pay transparency), and I'm grateful that I have gotten to attend many D&I events hosted by different groups where I can take time out of my work day to learn, meet new people, hear different perspectives, and challenge myself.

Cons

It can be difficult to see how things are going to shake out in the long term given the big changes we've made recently. However, I think our leadership has done a good job of encouraging me to stay motivated in the near term until we can see further out.

Thanks for taking the time to drop us a review! Your sentiment about feeling connected to a great purpose at Glassdoor is music to our ears. It's a mission we feel strongly about, and we look for talent who can add to that excitement. We are truly in a "thinking outside the box" chapter of our company, where new and bold ideas are being embraced and developed. We hope that our decision to publish salary ranges encourages other employers to have transparency conversations about how they think about pay. Additionally, it holds us accountable to our own employees! While 2020 has not panned out how we initially planned it to, we are incredibly optimistic that the strategy we've aligned ourselves to this year will position us for long-term success and maximum impact on our industry. Thanks again!

Pros

The move to work from home has been awesome. The teams all the way to the execs have made the transition from working in the office to working from home pretty seamless. I also enjoy the fact that we can now work from anywhere. While I did not enjoy working from home initially, I have found myself to be just as if not more productive on most days. Along with that, allowing us the opportunity to move to different states is an awesome perk for those who want to take advantage of that. The stipend that was given for us to buy office supplies was clutch. I was able to buy a brand new desk that has made my home office a much more comfortable place to work. I thought the amount was more than generous and was greatly appreciated. My team is awesome. We don't take things too seriously, but also work hard and collaboratively to get things done

Cons

I am not a fan of how slowly things move within the engineering department. This is due to the many bugs that occur on what seems to be on a daily basis with the admin side of the site. It appears that resources in the engineering department are slim and things do not get addresses as quickly as they should. It seems like there is more of an emphasis to push out new products than there is fixing our existing products. While I appreciate trying new things and trying to move forward, a lot of times the tools that we currently work with need fixing before moving on to something else. This slows down productivity for a lot of people within C&C and is frustrating to see a new product coming out when we don't even have a handle on the old ones or even something new that was already released that still might not function correctly. A lot of these things just feel like "hurry up and wait" situations. Hurry to push new things and then wait for them to actually work correctly. Again, this is referring to things on the admin side. Also, I hate Workday. I would prefer a less complicated and more intuitive employee management system. I was given a small crash course on how to use this from a managerial standpoint that I still don't know how much of it works. When we are given new instructions on new things we have to do, the instructions infrequently match up with what I see in WD and don't function as the instructions say they should. Every time I have to do something new in WD, I already anticipate some sort of issue and most of the time I do end up with an issue.

Thank you for your thoughtful review. Transitioning to full-time remote work was a challenge for us all, one that I feel our whole team handled amazingly. I'm glad that you've been able to adjust and feel optimistic about our shift to ""Work Anywhere."" I hear your frustrations about the bugs we've been encountering. It's been a difficult few months as we've worked on sorting out several issues within our admin tooling. While we still have much work to do, I feel like things are moving in the right direction. Building a strong partnership with our product and engineering teams and establishing a clear feedback loop is key to improving this area. And thank you for sharing your feedback about Workday - I've passed this feedback directly to our People team. I'm also investigating options for more robust training for our teams. I'm saddened to hear you are experiencing issues with micromanagement within our team. Empowering our leaders and team members to own their work areas is very important to me. I believe it's one of the best ways to hone your skills and grow in your career at Glassdoor. If you're open to it, I'd like to hear more about some of the specific issues you're encountering and talk about how we can find a better path forward. Thanks again for your feedback. Please reach out to cara@glassdoor.com if you'd like to talk more.
