Pros

Leadership and management is always looking out for your best interests! It feels great knowing that Glassdoor leaders will give us their time and resources to mature info refined professionals, and do not expect us to come in being perfect. You just have to ask for the help! Glassdoor also has a lot of fun benefits like catered lunch, flexible work schedule, ability to bring dogs into the office, and Marin kombucha on tap! All coworkers are wonderfully quirky, motivated and diverse. I love coming to work for the people!

Cons

Although you can learn a ton at Glassdoor, there is almost no structure or guidance on how to succeed at your job. Managers are spread thin on many different projects other than helping their direct reports achieve Quarterly success. Training for new hires is extremely disorganized and disorganized. You have to rely on your peers to learn the day to day. Continued trainings that are marked as MANDATORY to attend in the middle of your day, are oftentimes useless. If you want to know something, get resources, or learn, you have to go after it yourself. The "build your own desk" culture is still very much alive! Pro for some, con for others.

Pros

Growth: Glassdoor has experienced tremendous growth since I started with the company in 2013. It has been a true privilege to be a part of the growth and maturity of this company and I have been given so many incredible opportunities to further myself as a marketer and as a person. Having the opportunity to gain global b2b marketing experience is invaluable. Momentum: I think we have really found our stride in the Dublin office. Things are falling in to place and we are starting to gain momentum. Admittedly, it was a tough transition breaking in to a new market without a playbook and we lacked a few key players to help lead the way but that was all part of the thrill and excitement for me. We had/still have the freedom to try creative campaigns/tactics to find out what exactly works for EMEA. People: The people make this office. Having moved to Dublin only knowing a handful of people, my co-workers have become some of my best friends and mentors. I really enjoy and admire the people in both the Dublin and London offices and we all generally share the same desire to win. We work hard and still find time to enjoy each other’s company.

Cons

Clarity around the future of this market: This has always been something I have struggled with but that’s part of being a global company. We didn’t have a dedicated person/people that were able to give insight in the long term plan for EMEA. With the recent addition of a few key roles, and dedicated exec buy in, I feel extremely hopeful for the future of Glassdoor in EMEA. Resources: This is not necessarily a con but in this office you have to be scrappy. You may not have the immediate resources you need at your fingertips so it’s up to you to go get them. That’s just how it is at a startup within a startup. It may fall on you to reach out to our U.S. counterparts to get access to resources you need and that’s okay.

Pros

I believe in the senior leadership/execs. Made great updates to approach re: sharing information that has had a felt impact. Love the new focus on being a recruitment company, instead of separate B2C and B2B identities. Excited for building for scale over the next years. Marketing reorg was smart, and long needed. Have had good career opps here. Not an ego-driven place. Tries to be and hire thoughtful, strong people. Def appreciate our gym (though needs some investment) and classes (more yoga please!).

Cons

Salaries not market rate. Think it's hard for us to hire true A players all the time. Not as modern or shiny/sexy place as some expect from Valley tech - whether that's our environment/office space, coffee, tech savvy of employees, or our sites/app and design. Feedback/suggestions to HR and facilities oft met with defensive, corporate email replies - even something small like "could we have less candy / unhealthy food and more healthy stuff?"
