- Former Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Great colleagues, wonderful atmosphere and an enjoyable place to come to work everyday.
Cons
Unfortunately the handling of the redundancy news in May was executed poorly.

Pros
Nice office with decent work life balance. Salary was fair and balanced. Fast paced company. Like most tech companies. Generally enjoyed the experience.
Cons
Growing pains like most tech companies. Has a reputation for fake reviews harming normal companies with disgruntled employees. Needs to correct that image to improve reputation.
Thanks for the feedback and we are happy to hear your entire compensation package felt fair and balanced. We take into account all the components of compensation from base salary, bonus/commission targets and equity as a long-term incentive. We strive to ensure we are paying to our market and are intentional in some components by exceeding the market with direct peer groups. Two times per year, which run in parallel to our Fall and Spring focal reviews (bonuses are paid every 6 months per year), we compare and benchmark against similar companies by industry, headcount and our annual revenue. The companies we benchmark against include Redfin, Gogo, Quotient Technology, MongoDB and many others. We intentionally target our base salary midpoint as the 65th percentile for non-tech roles and in the 75th percentile for tech roles. Most technology companies target competitive wages at the 50th percentile when benchmarking base pay. This means that 65-75% of organizations we compete with, will pay less than our rate for that role. Thanks again for the feedback and glad you were a part of our team. - Brian Conner, Sr. Director of Total Rewards

Thanks so much for sharing your perspective. I am glad to hear that you feel Glassdoor has great people and that the mindset is positive and transparent. Those are all absolutely core values we strive to build and protect in our daily culture. I am thankful you are here and part of this team to help us continue to do that! I also understand the feedback regarding our partnership with our sister Company Indeed and at times that can feel like it slows you down. There is still an opportunity to make the partnership even stronger and more seamless. Please know that myself and the rest of your leadership team will continue to prioritize the team’s feedback to ensure that happens. Thank you again for your feedback and being a part of this Glassdoor journey. VP Global Sales, Molly McKinstry

It's not the same company it was, but it's still a good place to work
RecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Although a lot has changed this year and it has been and will be a huge challenge, there are still positives at Glassdoor. For my role I feel I am paid fairly and when we had a physical office in Dublin, I felt we were well taken care of in terms of the usual perks (office snacks, team nights out etc). Hopefully the company will find a way to continue that while we work from home for the foreseeable due to COVID-19. In the past I always felt that career opportunities were great at the company - I am unsure if this will continue, but hope it will. At the moment I feel that management and leadership are listening to what we have to say, and our opinions are being taken on board. Working from home has been great and the flexibility that the company has always shown in terms of time off is a huge positive. I am hoping we can continue to work from home on a permanent basis but that is still TBC. Overall I am still happy to be working for Glassdoor but there are huge challenges ahead.
Cons
Let's be honest, the slashing of around 55 jobs in Dublin and 300 globally was handled terribly. It felt like a house we had been building for years had just been hit by a bomb. The announcement was handled badly. We have preached transparency for years and at the moment when we needed it most, leadership failed. The reviews on this page from Dublin pre-March 2020 are now worthless as this is no longer the same company. It is a similar company, but definitely not the same one I have worked in for 4 years . The reorganisation has been a bit of a mess and I think it will be the same for the next 6-9 months. - I guess that is to be expected with such a large change in strategy. Unfortunately with the recent changes, we now have no high level leadership on the ground in EMEA and we have gone back to being led by the US. This did not work in the past, and it wont work going forward. We need someone with overall responsibility for the region to be actually in the region to deal with issues if / when they arise. With the reorganisation, the jobs we were previously doing have changed significantly, and to be honest a lot of us feel like we have been demoted (despite the company message that we have not).

“While there is always work to do, I truly believe that Glassdoor walks the walk when it comes to DEI. The support and prominence that is given to our ERGs and DEI issues is phenomenal. It's a topic that is infused from the top down in our OKRs from the CEO to the Executive team and below. And it's infused into our daily work lives. It seems like were are at the upper echelon of companies who are so strongly commited to DEI and it makes me very proud. I hope that others follow in our footsteps!”
