Pros

The people here are amazing - always positive, genuine, honest, and open. Totally love the vision of helping people find the jobs that fit their life.

Cons

The biggest downside, especially for engineering, is the career growth aspect and the ability to move fast towards technological advancements. There is also a long way to become truly agile especially now that the organization has grown to a decent size. The expectation of people should work extra hours similar to being in a start-up does not really gel well with everything else that is not so start-up like. The other downside has also been the location as the company is growing and it does not help much in hiring local talent.

I appreciate you being so candid about what’s working and what’s not. As we scale, it’s important to retain our agility. The investments we are making in DevOps' Platform as a Service and the continued push to micro-services should allow us to recover some of that agility and I hope you are already starting to see some of the benefits. Regarding career development, I'm proud that many of the engineering leaders grew from within our org rather than hiring from outside, but I know we need to continue to invest to ensure everyone has the opportunity to learn new technologies and meet their career goals. As a leader yourself, I'd love for your participation and support in helping to improve these things. Thanks for the comment!

Pros

-Rewarding, interesting, exciting work -Great emphasis on work-life balance -Excellent benefits (free lunch, exercise classes, commuter benefits, paid-for insurance premium, flexible PTO) -Exciting time to be at the company — we're in early enough to have a lot of impact, but late enough that we're over a lot of the instability that early stage startups have -The company's doing very well at the moment -Kind and interesting coworkers. I've been in some cliquey workplaces before, and this is a refreshing break -Twice annual performance bonuses -Good managers and leadership -Most people here really believe in the mission -Lots of flexibility when it comes to working from home

Cons

-The commute. I reeeeally wish the office was in SF, not Marin -Work life balance is good overall, but there are moments where it really flares up (but that's largely because my team has roles that need to be filled) -Pay is pretty competitive for my role, although I know others don't feel the same (a lot of people in STEM roles and sales, I believe)

Thanks for sharing and we’re glad you’re part of the team! Right now our SF office is small but mighty, and currently only houses a small number of data and engineering folks. As we grow, there’s certainly opportunity to expand, so having more people in our SF location is definitely something we can look at in the future.

Pros

Glassdoor has overall been amazing experience. The people who work for Glassdoor are truly amazing and care about the product. The Glassdoor mission is clear and product is great. I couldn't be happier.

Cons

Like every startup, there are growing pains. This past year was tough with quotas a bit of a stretch. However, management took note of the miss and made the correction. We are back on path and heading for a great year.

I’m glad you’re part of this team and grateful for your feedback about our comp plans. If you have more feedback about how the new quotas are working for you, my door is always open.
