      Pros

      There's so many good things that Glassdoor is doing right now to keep true to company culture while continuing to expand and grow. 1. Work/life balance is amazing. 2. The growing team in Chicago has hit the ground running and is working tirelessly to make Chicago the next big staple for Glassdoor and it's very fun to be apart of that. 3. Management here really cares about you and your career growth here. 4. Lots of free food and snacks. 5. Working for a company where people truly believe and value the what they're selling makes so much difference. There's so much passion for Glassdoor and that really shows across the board.

      Cons

      There aren't too many true cons I can think of right now. Everything I would consider a con would fall under the "growing pains" category. Expect there to be a learning curve with the job and a learning curve with the whole Chicago operation, it only started in January 2016. We can't have dogs in the office would be the only true con I can think of.

      Thank you so much for this incredible review! As someone who has been with Glassdoor through thick and thin--and across the country--I could not agree more. We are at a point as a company where our rapid growth is impacting us in positive ways. Like any company of our size & stage, we are working through growing pains that leadership in Chicago (and throughout our four other offices) are consistently working to address. When we as employees offer our feedback, it helps provide transparency to our leadership on where we’re getting it right but also where we can course correct. As for the no dog policy, we are a bit limited by policies in our current building, but we are doing our best to not forget our four-legged friends--just check out our new Pet Wall! Our culture across the company, but especially out here in Chicago, is hands-down the strongest of any workplace I've seen and we truly value everyone who works here. We are continuing some long-held Glassdoor traditions, as well as the Buddy Program, so that our new hire classes feel at home and ready starting on Day 1. Glassdoor Chicago is not only here to stay, it’s here to make powerful difference. Glad to have you as part of the team!

      Pros

      - Great people, they are always willing to help and teach. - Awesome company culture, lots of fun company sponsored events. - Free lunch on Monday/Wednesday/Thursday. - Snacks and drinks always available in the kitchen. - Reasonable expectations and quotas. - Clear career advancement path.

      Cons

      Not the BEST training because of the fact that the office is still fairly new. I can tell they are working really hard to improve the training process as they continue to grow and bring on more new sales people. More senior sales people get awesome training and in all honestly the SDR role doesn't need extensive training.

      An exciting and rewarding place to work

      Pros

      There are lots of pros! Number one is that there are great people working at Glassdoor not just in Dublin but beyond. Everyone is extremely friendly and helpful and will do all they can to help you achieve and succeed. While you will always be busy and it's not 9-5 (some days you come in earlier and go home later), there is always an element of fun and humour in the office. Salary, bonus and benefits are great compared to other similar roles in tech startups. The role itself is demanding and good organisation around calendar, email and phone calls is key to being successful. Training for everything is provided but you do need to be a fast learner to take it all in. If you like working in a target based environment then being an SDR at Glassdoor is the perfect job. As the company is still so new in Dublin and Europe, it has massive potential for growth and that makes it a really exciting project to be part of.

      Cons

      As a new project in Dublin there are still some teething problems and the office is somewhat 'scrappy' but to be honest that is to be expected. Myself and other fellow starters had delays in getting our laptops and phones sorted and this impacted on our training I felt.

      Glad that you're enjoying the experience so far. We've come a long way since we opened the office just 6 months ago. For sure, there's still a lot of "scrappiness" but as you say, that's to be expected in the early days of a new office - in fact, for some people it's part of the appeal of joining us at this stage. That and the massive growth potential you mention. I agree that we definitely feel the impact of not having on site IT - we're working on a solution and learning from issues that have happened. As for training, as we reach critical mass I expect this to get better. In the meantime, if you have any other suggestions for ways to make things better feel free to bring them to me directly.
