Pros

Glassdoor walks the walk! The company follows through on its mission by implementing transparency in the workplace. Leadership truly cares about its employees, listens, and incorporates feedback. I feel very fortunate to work here!

Cons

Some growing pains with the partnership with Indeed, and clients sometimes are frustrated that they still need to go to two different profiles to update, but hopefully, the process will be further integrated soon.

First, I appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. I'm encouraged by your sentiment of ""Glassdoor walks the walk."" Having been at Glassdoor myself for many years, this resonates with me as well. I'm so glad to hear that you are feeling seen and heard by the leadership group. Speaking specifically about CS, employee feedback is the key driving force behind how we focus our efforts in improving employee experience. Keep sharing and helping us be the best CS team possible! As for your feedback on our partnership, we've heard this from our teams and customers and it's the highest priority for Product. They are currently building the integrated experience so customers don't have to dual post and I, like you, am looking forward to being able to share a streamlined experience with customers. - Kira Dewey, Interim Head of CS
