One of the best companies i've worked for

Pros

They really take their values seriously. Transparency is king at Glassdoor and its felt in every decision they've made. I never felt left in the dark or like there were resources the company was shielding from me. This is also great as a sales rep, I knew everything there was about the product I was selling and I could feel good about selling it. They never asked me to lie or twist the truth. Always honesty first.

Cons

Diversity could have also been much better. The Chicago office was pretty much a monoculture. Everybody was nice, but homogenous. I was a little worried when I first started. They need to broaden their employee demographic.

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!
