Pros

I really enjoyed my time at Glassdoor. I've had the pleasure to work it some really good and smart people. I admired the Tech Leadership team as well as the Executive team. They made sure radical transparency was at the forefront of everything we envisioned. I enjoyed the perfect balance between work and life.

Cons

The tech stack is improving but there are still legacy apps to deal with. It felt the compensation wasn't very competitive

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.
