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.

Not great

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.

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!
