Pros

The team is strong and there have been good relationships formed in the sales team. Autonomy is available in your role, given that the numerous reports are completed weekly. Office location is good as well

Cons

Too much administration and company meetings done weekly to run an effective book of business Micro management is peaking through Being a UK entity of a US business, you are a second thought to their needs and demands and focus is not given entirely to growing pains in a new market The product is a 'nice to have' vs a necessity Still no benefits - after years of requesting Career Progression is slow for a start-up

Thanks for your review. It’s clear we really missed the mark for you. To your point, we do have a very talented team in London and it’s great to hear you formed good relationships with the team — they’re one of the highest performing in the entire org, so I hear you on the pressure. I encourage you to reach out directly to me or the team to help clarify your needs. We’re a close team and all work very hard to continue to advance Glassdoor, keep up with our exponential growth and develop together. Our CEO recently visited London and shared the vision for next year and the UK is a focal point. You are a local leader and I encourage you to please share your voice and ideas with frequency. It’s always welcome. Thank you, Director, Glassdoor EMEA

Pros

Leadership is clearly listening to us! If I had been writing this review even just a few days ago, I would not have much to write in this section. However, due to recent announcements of the departure of senior Customer Success leadership I'm realizing that we have not been screaming into a void. Robert and others are listening to us and understand that our toxic and tyrannical senior leader needed to be replaced if we are to ever recover from a hard 2016. I have renewed faith in the organization and am confident that we will "feel the wind at our backs" once again (to quote Robert from an all-hands late last year). Full disclosure: I had a full schedule of interviews this week that I can now cancel with a smile on my face, as I am optimistic that with these organization changes and a key blocker removed from the equation, we can mature into an amazing company.

Cons

I could write a novel detailing the intimidation tactics that many of us endured from former department leadership, but with recent developments considered I have nothing to say other than that I'm excited to stay at Glassdoor!!

Pros

Company Mission - Few higher callings than helping people find great jobs. CEO - Robert is the most authentic CEO I've worked for and his "tone at the top" established and maintains the Company's great culture. Energy - Glassdoor employees work hard and get Stuff Done. Coming to the office picks me up and keeps me going.

Cons

Growing Pains - Its tough to add 40% more employees, double the number of offices and push big Sales growth all in one year without disrupting established patterns and making mistakes. The physical plant, our people processes and our management are stretching to deal with the growth. Sometimes things don't go as planned. I think we learn from each mistake and get better as an organization each time something goes wro…
