Pros

The people at Glassdoor were the true differentiator. I had the privilege of working alongside teammates who were not only talented, but generous with their time, always stepping in to help others succeed. That sense of camaraderie and support was a key reason so many of us stayed longterm.

Cons

Glassdoor used to be a powerhouse with a culture people were proud to be part of. After Recruit acquired it in 2020, they tried to keep the heart of it alive. But once the merge with Indeed took hold, that heart got ripped out. So many incredible salespeople and leaders who were the very ones who built this company, were cut loose. Let’s call it what it is: the end of an era.

Thank you for sharing your heartfelt perspective. I’m deeply moved by your recognition of the extraordinary people who have made this company so special. The camaraderie, generosity, and talent you describe are exactly what built the foundation of our success and on a personla note, motivated me to do my best every day. I also understand the sadness and frustration that can come with significant transitions. While this may feel like the end of an era, I remain committed to honoring the spirit of what made this company great and to supporting our teams as we shape the next chapter together. - Owen Humphries | President, 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.
