      Pros

      -When in Mill Valley, the lunches were sometimes good and the Coke machine usually had ice

      Cons

      -Culture of blame -No vision or real leadership from senior management -Very "junior" sales org from top-down with little outside experience and not much thought leadership -Very negative, toxic culture -Total inability to make the transition from revenue to margin -Very dishonest culture. Lying is encouraged here. -Layoffs/RIFs fairly common (Leadership is very reactionary with zero discipline to stay the course) -Watched a senior level person be recruited from a top-tier organization with 10+ years of tenure (hired to work remote) only to be told 4-weeks later that the organization would no longer support remote (that was the official excuse given, and printed on paperwork filed with the state of CA, however I was advised by someone who was actually IN the meeting with the CEO the day before that the cut was made purely for budget reasons - don't believe the corporate values - they are wall decorations)

      Glassdoor Response

      Hi - I really am sorry that Glassdoor wasn't a fit for you. Being remote is very challenging, and in your case, the position really needed to be in one of our large sales offices. We're proud of our culture and if you read the many reviews on the site, it's one of our biggest advantages. But it's not for everyone. We are very honest. We hold each other accountable. We expect everyone to display strong judgment and we try to push out responsibility as far as we can. We work hard, and we demand that from each other. Integrity is incredibly important to us, and lying is not tolerated. I do swear from time to time, you got me there. Maybe I had a head injury in 6th grade? It's entirely possible. It was certainly not my intent to offend you, I apologize for that.

      Pros

      The benefits and culture were probably the best I've ever had. Even better than the benefits were the people I worked with. I enjoyed coming into work and doing my job and really stood behind the company tag line of helping people find jobs they love.

      Cons

      During covid things started getting bad. Like many other companies layoffs came around and how the company handled those were terrible. You show up one day and next thing you know you lose access and cryptic email and then your'e gone. This happened again in 2025. They brought in person whose job it was to basically get people to leave. They didn't care about the content on the site, or any of the efforts in place to promote integrity and transparency and instead just wanted to shove AI down everyone's throat. What's sad is that Glassdoor was once a great company that I was proud to say I worked for. Now it's just like everywhere else, AI, AI, AI and trying to get people to quit before the next round of layoffs.
