Pros

Glassdoor changed my life for the better, both professionally and personally. Nothing compares to the culture. I've never met so many smart, hard working and mission driven people in my life. It's truly a unique place.

Cons

We're at a pivotal point as a company, which is very exciting, but also means we're dealing with more change than usual. Communication regarding plans and team expectations could be better especially for remote workers.

I’m glad to hear Glassdoor is the right place for you-- rest assured I have spent a lot of time thinking about how to unite our remote workers and cross-continental offices. As we grow, it’s important for our communication to get better, not harder. This is something we’re taking seriously and actively experimenting with to see what works for our teams here and abroad. Please keep the feedback coming!

Pros

Glassdoor is full of smart people who are dedicated to the company's mission. Our CEO keeps us updated on what is going on at the company through various channels. His transparency leads to a feeling of importance in the work you do and establishes a trust in those you work with. My team is the best! It is lead by someone who empowers us to be the best we can be. A trusting, caring culture has been created making it a pleasure to come to work.

Cons

The size of the company has become overwhelming. Growth is definitely good but along with it you lose the "family feel". Teams are segregated into their various rolls and it is very difficult to get to know others at a deeper level. Benefits have been superior to any others I have had at other places. This will change in 2018. I understand this is a necessary change in order for the company to accomplish their goals. Hopefully the changes will be made in everyone's best interest.
