Pros

Everyone is so outgoing and friendly. There is never a dull moment. There is ALWAYS work to be done---- a huge work hard play hard mentality at Glassdoor. So much room for growth at Glassdoor. There is a set track and if you get your work done, you will move up very quickly. Seems to be a lot of guidance

Cons

No 401K Match Yet. Also there is unlimited PTO, but if you take any days off you have an immense amount of prep work before you go and an immense amount of catch up work when you get back.

Thank you for your feedback. Sometimes it feels like there is never a good time to take a vacation. But that doesn't mean you can't or shouldn't. I encourage you to work with your manager and create a plan to ensure you're prioritizing your own needs. We don't want burned out and stressed out employees. Balancing it all isn't easy, but it's necessary.

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.
