Pros

The people at Glassdoor were the best of the best. The culture was extremely collaborative, inclusive, and enabled us to grow. I learned so much from my manager and director and am still in touch with many of my collegues and mentors even as we approach the 1 year mark of the massive lay off.

Cons

Transparency The company yielded this as one of the highest core values and they lied to us until the very last week before the lay off. The upper management (Christian and comrades) had extremely poor leadership during a very difficult time. It seemed like COVID was a cover up for the lay off when it's really that Glassdoor is being more absorbed into Indeed than before. It's sad because it was such a special place.

Pros

great people, at least there used to be

Cons

let go of a bunch of great employees. I think Glassdoor had great potential. Now it will most likely just get sucked up by indeed.

Pros

The people at Glassdoor have always been the reason I've stayed so long. I have been on a few great teams at Glassdoor and each one has been filled with encouraging, smart, and supportive people. Great benefits, unlimited PTO, new computers and IT has been incredibly accommodating by providing anything needed to make the transition to WFH as smooth as possible. I am excited to hear the new focus will be around Salary Transparency, for a company that is built around transparency this has not always been the case. After I shared my salary with a member of my team, my manager asked me not to do this in the future. I am glad GD is starting to practice what we preach by embracing salary transparency.

Cons

Over the last 6 months, there has been a ton of uncertainty, with the massive layoffs and the future partnership with indeed it feels as if we have just molded to whatever indeed needs. We have switched our strategy three times in the last year and it is hard to understand what our goal as a company is long term. I am not confident that there will be a need for the Glassdoor GTM teams once we officially start partnering with Indeed and anticipate layoffs. Only time will tell.
