      Pros

      The people at Glassdoor (prior to the layoffs) that were at the director level or below, are the best people I have met or had the pleasure of working with. The people are what made the company so great. The TA team was amazing and it hurts to write this post knowing this and all other reviews will make their jobs 10x harder. The product for the job seeker is phenomenal.

      Cons

      The product has not been "enhanced" in years. "Leadership" went down the drain as the acquisition by Recruit kicked in. Transparency was at an all-time low at the time of the layoffs. Understanding we are in tough times, this is when transparency is needed most. Blindsided is an understatement regarding the emergency all-hands meeting (we were given a 30 minutes notice) before cutting the heart and soul of the company out and throwing them to the curb.

      The people make Glassdoor more than just a place to work, they really do make it something special. I'm glad that you felt that your colleagues were some of the best people you've met and worked with. No doubt, COVID-19 has had a significant impact on everything, including our business. It's truly heartbreaking to have to say goodbye to such talented Glassdoor team members. Please know I believe transparency is incredibly important and believe it's our most important company value. While we had shared in our monthly All Hands that we’d seen a significant impact on our company, I hear your feedback that you felt blindsided by this decision. I hear you and take that feedback with me. I hope you will stay in touch with the people that made your time at Glassdoor special and please do not hesitate to reach out. We’re here to support you and we wish you the very best. Christian CEO, Glassdoor

      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.
