Pros

Glassdoor has an incredible team of people that believe in the company mission. We have a product that has the potential to be incredibly powerful in world where transparency continues to be more important for job seekers, employees and employers. Glassdoor has a leadership team that is trying hard to navigate lots of transition as we partner more with Indeed and focus on our true differentiators. It is a company where you can be yourself and is committed to supporting diversity.

Cons

Glassdoor is navigating lots of change as we look to partner with our sister company Indeed. While this change can create opportunity, it also creates uncertainty particularly for the sales org. The next 6-12 months will be incredibly important for ensuring Glassdoor successfully navigates the transition. We need to retain the talented people we have to ensure we can be successful long-term.
