Pros

Fully remote is great. Additionally, the work-life balance is fantastic. The comp & benefits are exceptional. I believe in the vision Glassdoor has and upper management is very encouraging and helpful.

Cons

Due to the indeed+glassdoor partnership, there's consistent changes to quota. This isn't a huge negative, however. Sales orgs change quotas and commission structures regularly.
