Pros

The leaders at Glassdoor truly care about the well being and happiness of their employees. They stand by our mission - helping people everywhere find jobs and companies they love. This starts from within our organization. Leaders readily encourage feedback and rally quickly to make improvements so people can do their jobs and enjoy doing them! I feel confident this organization is taking all the precautionary measures to ensure a successful and sustainable business operation.

Cons

Streamlining communication is a challenge in any growing organization. The smaller the organization, the more everyone feels included in the day to day decisions occurring around them. As a company scales, a lot needs to be done and it needs to be done quickly. Communication can get lost in translation, or worse yet, lost in cyber space. To maintain the transparent foundation this company was built on, effective communication will be key.

Pros

Incredibly intelligent and successful leadership. We're disrupting the market We're the talk of the industry Most people "get it" and those who don't typically don't need much convincing/explanation. We're not your typical one dimensional recruitment/HR company - i saw that from day 1 of training! Fast paced, hyper growth and true startup feel in London. Your work and effort doesn't go unnoticed and has an immediate impact. Surrounded by smart people The future, what we will accomplish is incredibly exciting and i'm excited to be a key part of our global growth.

Cons

The London office isn't quite as cool as HQ and we don't have the perks they have. We have to deal with miserable weather and even more miserable faces on the tube commuting to the office everyday. Added to that, we don't have free catered lunches, onsite gym, unlimited PTO, dogs at work, video games in the office, a nap room, kayaking at the office or an amazing view out the window!! ..In all seriousness this will change over time and we're currently in a trendy part of London but it's not quite Sausalito. For some reason the business simply wont take me seriously when i ask to be relocated to head office!! UK Benefits are lacking somewhat but I know that's a matter of time before we're on a par with the US.

Thank you for the really thoughtful review. The London office, as you point out, is new and we are working to make it as great as our Sausalito office. You and everyone else in that office are a huge part of that!
