Pros

Awesome benefits, teams and everyone is excited for work every day.

Cons

Fast moving startup, job roles can change. Lots of ambition but not always the bandwith to get things done.

Glassdoor Response

Thank you for your feedback! I think your comments are fair - we take a lot of care to make sure we are compensating our employees fairly, putting people first, and ensuring Glassdoorians understand the significance of their work within the larger context. That being said, we are in a moment of change at Glassdoor, with new ambition to build the leading platform for workplace conversations and community. That comes with the need to ensure we are not stretching people too thin as we evolve. It is a good nudge for us to keep an eye on. Appreciate your feedback! - Eric Pettit, Vice President of Marketing
