Pros

Great benefits including fully covered medical, dental, vision insurance, free catered lunches daily, great training programs, fantastic team atmosphere, and unlimited PTO! I couldn't have made a better choice and am very grateful for this opportunity. I have a very diverse background and add a lot to the team. I feel my work is appreciated and acknowledged by upper management. There is a lot of opportunity for advancement and career development. I highly recommend working for this AMAZING COMPANY!

Cons

Transportation from SF is a little difficult and limited transportation benefits for my location. There is a lot of clingy people and it's a little like high school during lunch. Parking is getting limited with new hires. Training is also crammed in some days and slower others, this can be overwhelming at times. A larger gym will be more appealing, it's hard for more than 10 people at a time to work out in the small room, but again this is just feedback and I'm grateful to work for this awesome company!

Pros

Working at Glassdoor has been the best career opportunity I've had hands down. I had really wanted to get in the door so I started lower level than I necessarily was seeking and I was able to progress really quickly with a lot of hard work & dedication. It is a wonderful place full of really, really smart people who I truly love to be around. If you are looking to take your career to the next level and want to & enjoy working for it, this is the place to do it. If you have good intentions, people recognize it. People are treated fairly & equally no matter what level they are. The world is your oyster here if you want to make an impact. And it will be fun while you do it. I am so grateful to have had this company come into my life!

Cons

Growing fast, hard to know everyone now. Just some advice: if you don't get personal satisfaction out of working hard, this is not the place for you.
