An unfortunate end but great experience

Pros

Company really led with its' values to the very bitter end. It was a great thing until the layoffs.

Cons

There weren't any real cons other than the seismic shifts that were happening with the business regarding its partnership with its parents company. It felt like that a lot of the values that the company was supposed to lead with was also being dictated by the needs of the parent company at times. Timelines for internal promotions were seldom truthful because of business needs. Otherwise, I want nothing more than Glassdoor to weather this storm to the best it can.

Glassdoor Response

It deeply saddens me to see such talented, good people like yourself leave Glassdoor and for your journey with Glassdoor to end in this way. Please know this isn't your fault, at all. I take responsibility for the company and what has just happened too. I wish you the very best as you move forward in your career and have no doubt you will do great things. Many of us here genuinely do want to help you move forward so please reach out if we can be of support. You will be missed. Christian CEO, Glassdoor
