Pros

Glassdoor has an amazing CEO (Robert) who really cares for the team members and is extremely genuine in trying to create a great platform for people to use in searching for a company. I loved the collaborative environment, flexibility to own your stuff, and the challenge to be at the forefront of building great software. Thanks for the awesome experience.

Cons

I worked a lot, but this was mostly my own desire - I didn't feel micro-managed in any way, I just loved it.

Glassdoor Response

Pros

Glassdoor is a company that truly cares about you as an individual. I have, on countless occasions, had the opportunity to meet with our CEO and just chat. Get to know him as a person, which is rare! We also have so many great perks, benefits are amazing, promotion opportunities are through the roof, and of course, a GREAT opportunity to make some $$$. Pros: - Lunch on MW & Thurs - Catered breakfast for events - Snacks on snacks - La Croix, Coke, Diet coke, water, coffee - KIND OF unlimited PTO - not really though - Flexible work hours - Work/Life Balance

Cons

This being a "young org" will go through its changes, but this isn't really a con. If you can't roll with the punches, this might not be the place for you.

Glassdoor Response

Thanks for taking the time to share a review! Glad to hear things are going well for you and keep those lines of communication with our CEO and the rest of the team open!
