Pros

I was attracted to come over to Glassdoor because of their company vision and authentic personality. I felt that they practiced what they preached and their benefits truly reflected this and the value they place on their people. I worked with some of the kindest and hardest working people at Glassdoor. I joked that my team felt like a family often but I truly meant it. Great leadership is always key anywhere you go work and I always felt supported and seen with Glassdoor senior leadership.

Cons

I was burned by Glassdoor starting on day 5 by operational changes. I signed a contract to come to Glassdoor to be a full-time salaried employee with full benefits that exceeded anything I've seen out there. By Friday on week one over 1/3 of Glassdoor had been impacted by the change from exempt to non-exempt, meaning we would all go from salary to hourly with the most cherished benefits being stripped away from us. You can imagine how this change on day 5 after signing a contract with the same company with various promises being made changing my role completely. The lack of transparency from the top and the fact that they were still hiring while not disclosing this change was about to come down to people signing contacts that would completely change was unacceptable and a bit cruel. Glassdoor did right their wrongs in the coming weeks after the announcement and shift and I can only hope they will continue to do right by their people.

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.
