Pros

Really smart, talented team of coworkers with a powerful mission to help jobseekers find the right employment.

Cons

Chronic under investment in data engineering and data platform after a few rounds of layoffs make the day to day grind more difficult. Heavy investment in AI to compensate for the lost workforce in the short term is a tough bet, but long term I imagine it will improve.

The end of an era

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
