Pros

I was attracted to come over to Glassdoor because of their company vision and authentic personality. I felt that they practiced what they preached and their benefits truly reflected this and the value they place on their people. I worked with some of the kindest and hardest working people at Glassdoor. I joked that my team felt like a family often but I truly meant it. Great leadership is always key anywhere you go work and I always felt supported and seen with Glassdoor senior leadership.

Cons

I was burned by Glassdoor starting on day 5 by operational changes. I signed a contract to come to Glassdoor to be a full-time salaried employee with full benefits that exceeded anything I've seen out there. By Friday on week one over 1/3 of Glassdoor had been impacted by the change from exempt to non-exempt, meaning we would all go from salary to hourly with the most cherished benefits being stripped away from us. You can imagine how this change on day 5 after signing a contract with the same company with various promises being made changing my role completely. The lack of transparency from the top and the fact that they were still hiring while not disclosing this change was about to come down to people signing contacts that would completely change was unacceptable and a bit cruel. Glassdoor did right their wrongs in the coming weeks after the announcement and shift and I can only hope they will continue to do right by their people.

Thanks for the wonderful review! We are thrilled to read that you have experienced clear communication and an honest approach to work during your time at Glassdoor. While the global events of 2020 have brought many unforeseen challenges and shifts to Glassdoor, we couldn’t be more proud with how our teams have responded –– with Innovation, Grit, and a renewed commitment to our Glassdoor users. We hope that recent benefit adjustments (open PTO, additional Company Holidays, and WFH stipends, to name a few) have caused you to feel cared for. Thanks again for your commitment to Glassdoor, and we’re looking forward to lots of impactful work ahead!
