Pros

-The mission -Product is easy to get behind, so we feel pretty confident on the phone -The people are great, which makes a huge difference in company culture -I’ve had positive experiences with management that wants us to succeed and grow -New Chicago office is great -Robert and executive leadership is good at keeping us in the loop and demonstrating transparency -Opportunities for career growth -I feel excited about our future!

Cons

-We’ve grown a lot, which comes with some growing pains. At times internal communication could be much better, especially around promotion path and specific steps/timeline to promotion. I think we’re taking good steps to get there, though! -Our Chicago office is great, even though location is a little difficult for commuters. It would be amazing if there was the option to use the gym downstairs for free! I know I’m paying extra to commute there, so maybe sometime down the line that will be a wellness perk provided to employees.

Glassdoor Response

Thank you for the feedback. We are incredibly proud of the new Chicago office and we’ve invested a lot of time, love, and input in order to make it comfortable for our teams. This is a very exciting time for Glassdoor and we have more great things to come in the future as we keep getting better. Regarding your feedback on continuing with transparency; it is always a goal within executive leadership to filter communication back down to our teams. It is not always perfect, but we try hard at it and we are committed. And, we are working on how to better inform employees on career trajectory and what it takes to get promoted/advance at Glassdoor - Look for more on this soon. Thank you for all that you do. -Robert

Pros

The benefits and culture were probably the best I've ever had. Even better than the benefits were the people I worked with. I enjoyed coming into work and doing my job and really stood behind the company tag line of helping people find jobs they love.

Cons

During covid things started getting bad. Like many other companies layoffs came around and how the company handled those were terrible. You show up one day and next thing you know you lose access and cryptic email and then your'e gone. This happened again in 2025. They brought in person whose job it was to basically get people to leave. They didn't care about the content on the site, or any of the efforts in place to promote integrity and transparency and instead just wanted to shove AI down everyone's throat. What's sad is that Glassdoor was once a great company that I was proud to say I worked for. Now it's just like everywhere else, AI, AI, AI and trying to get people to quit before the next round of layoffs.
