      One Year In and Very Happy I Joined Up

      Pros

      Company Mission - Few higher callings than helping people find great jobs. CEO - Robert is the most authentic CEO I've worked for and his "tone at the top" established and maintains the Company's great culture. Energy - Glassdoor employees work hard and get Stuff Done. Coming to the office picks me up and keeps me going.

      Cons

      Growing Pains - Its tough to add 40% more employees, double the number of offices and push big Sales growth all in one year without disrupting established patterns and making mistakes. The physical plant, our people processes and our management are stretching to deal with the growth. Sometimes things don't go as planned. I think we learn from each mistake and get better as an organization each time something goes wrong. I hope the growth and the learning continues for a long time to come.

      Thanks for your review. I know the growth we've had over the past year has been jarring for people who have been here for a few years. But growth with all it's challenges, is always good. Not all startups are lucky enough to get here. We are very lucky, and we have a lot of work and innovation ahead of us. It's not going to be easy. But it'll always be worth it.

      I have never felt so on top of my game

      Pros

      I have never felt so on top of my game in my life as I do working for Glassdoor. Pros: - Fast internal growth opportunities - Level and responsibility isn't age dependent - Culture that embraces fail, but fail fast, pivot and learn (critical for a tech company) - Perks (free breakfast, lunch, and sometimes dinner, Budget for team building events like Giants Games or Glassdoor Olympics, nice onsite gym and free fitness classes before, during, and after work, 4 beers and kambucha on tap, and kayaks/bikes available to check out, communiter benefits, fantastic 100% contribution to healthcare, decent bonus structure) - Though Leader in employer branding and reducing the gender pay gap - Lots of focus on employee health, physically and mentally - Great to feel absense of ownership in the organization and a critical driver to its success

      Cons

      Glassdoor does have some downsides: - It might have a few years under its belt, but it operates very much like a start-up. The downside to that is that it lacks a lot of processes that other organizations of the same size have in place. It is a positive thing, though, if you want to have input in building processes for your team. - Some legacy decisions solved for more short term solutions than for long term ones, resulting in some additional re-work now so we can better scale for the future - Internal politics are at every company, and Glassdoor is no different. No worse than your average company, but I had hoped a company this young would have less of that - Run lead with large ambitions. I have never worked longer than my standard hours in my 10+ years of experience. I feel so many of us have such high objectives with less than necessary resources that so many of us are working 10+ hour workdays. - Hesitation to change previous decisions even if necessary to keep up with the times.

      Thanks for your perspective. I agree with just about everything here including continued investment in engineering and UX/UI. It's an incredible team. And, there is still a lot of work to do together.

      Pros

      The culture and environment here is full of outgoing, friendly, and kind individuals. This company values innovative thought and allows you to be creative whilst having fun! I generally like everyone I work with (which was not the case at my last job), and I look forward to coming to work!! Before I go to sleep I think about this job and get excited for the opportunities I have in the next day.

      Cons

      Like everyone else has been saying, just be able to adapt. Changes happen and you have to be ready.
