Pros

Glassdoor has an amazing mission and I feel like my efforts here are part of making a real difference in the world. And while we're going through a difficult time right now with the COVID recession, I love the people I work with and that powers me through. Glassdoor has an amazing culture and wonderful people.

Cons

Glassdoor's business has been significantly impacted by the COVID related economic downturn. We also laid off 30% of employees earlier this year. So it's somewhat of a low point in the company at this moment. That said, I know downturns come and pass, so I'm looking forward to when things pick up.

Pros

Great people, autonomy, opportunities to promotion, and an amazing culture. Coming to work never felt like a drag here, it was a place where filled with individuals with true GRIT. It was not odd to make lifelong friends here, many of us did. Unlimited PTO. Great health benefits.

Cons

Pay could be better for entry levels. With that being said, being laid off due to COVID19 Glassdoor did the right thing by making sure their workers were taken care of one last time before parting ways. Thank you GD, I’ll miss you so much.

Pros

The camaraderie at Glassdoor is unparalleled. I've worked at places where each department felt like it had its own goals and everything was disjointed, but here I feel like we're all one team working towards the same goals. The executive team is committed to transparency and it shows. I've been especially impressed at the level of communication that's taken place since COVID-19. This is a challenging time for a lot of companies, and the uncertainty that comes with it can be anxiety producing for many. I feel like leadership has really stepped up to give us frequent updates on the status of things within the company and how they're thinking through problems and ways to be fiscally responsible. Early on when I joined Glassdoor, I really wasn't sure if I had made the right decision. There were a lot of issues on the team I joined and some toxic players. I often felt discouraged and didn't think I had a solid career path ahead of me. But the evolution of the company since I've joined and the way they've stepped up to help employees and their families during this time has been nothing short of inspiring. I am beyond grateful to work here in a career that I love.

Cons

We have a pretty meetings heavy culture which can get in the way of productivity. Already the company has responded by doing a "No Meeting Wednesday" once a month, but I think it would be good to increase the frequency of those, especially while we're all remote which makes it hard to disconnect at times.
