Pros

I would highly recommend Glassdoor. They have smart folks at the helm driving in the right direction. It may have taken a turn at the start of COVID, but they are on the right path now. As Darwin wrote, "It's not the fastest or strongest species that survives, it's the one that adapts to change the best" Glassdoor has done that. I have an enormous amount of respect and appreciation for the folks there, CSW, Kate, etc. I'm grateful for all of the development, mentorship, and growth while watching the company scale. There are truly good eggs who really care about employees.

Cons

I think that it's important to understand that no company is perfect, and although there were certainly challenging times, all-in-all the good outweighed the bad significantly. Looking back with fond memories on a cool place to work.

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.
