Pros

Amazing company with great benefits, family style approach to leading teams and commitment to producing incredible results. Face paced work environment with tons of room for growth and a data-centric mentality. Fantastic leadership team that prides itself in being best in class and committed to improving the way people look for and find jobs!

Cons

Not many. If anything it's the constant juggling of many company initiatives while producing a high quality work product. With so much great work to get done, it can be difficult to say no to things and consistently maintain a great work product. Not for everyone and takes self-starters, efficient work management and people that embrace a feedback rich culture.

Pros

Awesome culture, experienced executive team, and huge market opportunity with great brand recognition

Cons

It felt like innovation started to slow down in the past couple of years - the glassdoor product is largely the same as it was to the end consumer 3-4 years ago

Thanks for your feedback here. Yes, we will keep pushing the innovation. We just launched "Know Your Worth", which is opening up salary data to people everywhere. This is exactly the kind of product we need to build: simple, elegant, provocative and helpful. I'm really proud of what we did together here. I have a lot of faith and high expectations for our product and engineering teams. We need to keep delivering.
