### "Great Source For Higher Paying Positions"

June 14, 2022

5.0

Glassdoor is on the top of the list of quality job boards. It brings in the highest quality candidates to your more difficult jobs to fill. People using Glassdoor know that this is a quality job board with quality jobs.

Pros

You can really focus on showcasing your company culture and attract qualified candidates to your company as opposed to a certain job title. Getting candidates to buy into your company before just the job is imperative to finding a candidate that will stay for the long haul

Cons

It's a bit hard to navigate at first as it's unlike normal job boards. It's quite dynamic. Once you learn how to navigate all the tools it is worth the initial frustrations.

Reason for choosing Glassdoor

Anyone who knows Glassdoor knows they are a high end job board that quality candidates use to get the highest paying and best jobs from.

### "Glassdoor has power but there is limited support for employers"

May 16, 2024

3.0

Glassdoor is a necessary tool that should be included in your employer brand strategy. I reckon a proactive approach to the platform that get the most of out it. More recently, I've watched Guru become a place for underperforming ex-employees to crucify employers. Glassdoor hasn't innovated much in 6+ years of using the platform so hopefully they build additional value and features to identify ex-employees posting multiple reviews.

Pros

Glassdoor can be fantastically powerful when it comes to features like analytics tracking impressions and page views. This is a really useful tool to measure your employer brand and you can often attribute spikes in volume to PR or other announcements. To increase awareness on employees reviewing, you can generate campaign links in a seamless automated way. It is easy to customise the employer brand within the portal and easy to use.

Cons

Glassdoor has limited support when it comes to employees abusing a Glassdoor profile. In multiple instances, we've had single employees post numerous fake reviews (which were proven) and it took weeks for Glassdoor to react to this flag and remove these reviews. Whilst I understand they need to ensure employers can't remove bad reviews, it is important to ensure employers are also supported when ex-employees abuse the platform.

### "My Glassdoor Website Experience "

February 21, 2023

5.0

Glassdoor has made it much easier for people like myself to gain insight into the culture and work environment of any particular organization. Not only does it allow me to read reviews from current and former employees, but also provides a concise yet comprehensive overview of the company in question. This website has a very user-friendly interface to make navigation easier for me.

Pros

One of the most unique features of JobFind is that employees can leave ratings and reviews on opportunities related to career growth and development. This feature can have helped me to assess potential employers and decide whether a particular job is a right fit for me.

Cons

I experienced some limitations while using the platform. Glassdoor reviews cannot always be taken as gospel truth. It is open to anyone to post their reviews, so it can be hard to verify if they are credible or unbiased. It is possible that some reviews come from current or ex-employees who have had a bad experience and are disgruntled.

### "Glassdoor - A place to learn about companies and jobs!"

September 6, 2022

5.0

Glassdoor has been crucial to finding quality candidates for open roles and helping showcase the employer brand to highlight culture, benefits, sentiment, etc. It is a great platform to not only help job seekers but companies looking for the right fit as well!

Pros

Glassdoor's UI is extremely easy to use and has an appealing look and feel to navigation. Making changes to your profile, adding resume and job history information, creating email notifications - these are features that are very important to job seekers and make finding a company to work for a joy to find.

Cons

Sometimes it is hard to search for specific companies due to their elastic search function, but overall it's an easy work around.

### "Glassdoor is the go to place to know more about companies"

July 14, 2022

5.0

My experience with the app was overall a good one, being able to read reviews about different companies, and getting to know more about the job market.

Pros

I like the most the fact that I can see interviews, job posting, salary informations and company reviews for different companies on the app, allowing the candidate to kind of filter during the job hunting process.

Cons

The candidate profile could be improved allowing the user to add more informations about himself.

### "Good website for seeking vacancies "

September 10, 2022

3.0

Its good. However, when you are looking for a job, you cant miss galssdoor as its one of the reputed websites to find your new career with.

Pros

I like the way they organize the website structure, its good and straight forward. Plus, they provide some good features like salaries and companies reviews.

Cons

I start feeling that a lot of their vacancies are not real. Its impossible to apply for hundreds of jobs that matching 100% my skills and experience without even being called from the employer! But, I can't blame glassdoor. It may be a fake position from the employer himself.

### "Best website for an individual to anonymously review any company he/she worked on"

July 7, 2021

5.0

Overall I could see that there is a monopoly of Glassdoor when reviewing a company anonymously. Hence, this platform is recommended by everyone who works in any organization to get the inside news and take appropriate future decisions.

Pros

1\. This tool enables the public to know the inside view of the company which he has applied for or going to join soon. 2. Revealing review to the public is a great way to identify if the company is functioning in an employee-friendly way.

Cons

Whistleblowing can sometimes lead to consequences if the person has not anonymously reviewed his company which may impact his hard time if the person is the employer of the same company.

### "Glassdoor to help finding your candidates"

October 7, 2022

4.0

Glassdoor is recommended to both companies and job seekers as its one of the largest online job posting and searching site. It is easy to use and setup your profile and it helps you managing your contacts and history.

Pros

Glassdoor is one of the most recognized job and candidate posting website therefore having a very large database and available options for both employers and candidates. You can search resumes with specific key words to find the best candidates with experiences, making it easier to connect your business with the right candidates.

Cons

Information is open to public and any recruiter, you can get unsolicited emails or phone calls

### "Excellent app to know new opportunities"

December 5, 2020

5.0

It gives elaborate data about the organization's structure, review, overview, salaries, past interviewer suggestions, and quick data which can be used before giving an interview to a company. Easy to use and have many insights helps to go through the interview rounds and get it cleared. Less expensive and user friendly on both the web-based and mobile platforms.

Pros

The most important part of Glassdoor is the Interview questions option, which helps the job seekers to know more about the company and its interview process. Keep you the updated information about the positions and opportunities available in the company.

Cons

Sometimes I see a few fake reviews and employees post reviews on frustration which brings a false impression on the company. They don't have a resume search option in them, so that recruited can make use of it. You can't make a connection with individuals to know more about the interview process. It doesn't have an in-build application tracking system in it like some of its competitors.

### "Job Hunting Just Got Better"

February 4, 2021

5.0

Truly a wonderful experience and would highly recommend to others!

Pros

I really liked the breadth and depth of the postings on Glassdoor. In addition, there are salary insights as well as reviews from people who work at that company. It really provides a terrific way to get a glimpse of company culture and the interview process.

Cons

I did not like how you have to pay or sign in to get the best insights from Glassdoor. The website locks you out if you do not have a subscription so you do not get access to everything if you are not signed in. That being said, it is worth it!

### "A requirement for recruiting"

September 27, 2022

4.0

Slightly frustrating due to it now being tied with Indeed, and the support being sub par.

Pros

It's so widely used that you know you will get at least some ROI from it.

Cons

Because it's now tied to Indeed, when one system has an error, the other will as well.

### "Great software!"

December 25, 2021

5.0

Overall Glassdoor has been a great help to me during job search and interview preparation. I love how I could sort interview experience by recency, and search for different companies' information quickly and reliably. Thanks Glassdoor!

Pros

I love the most how Glassdoor organizes the information and allows us to find what we need quickly, whether it be salary comparison, interview questions / experience, or a company's benefits.

Cons

Sometimes I wish there's more information available, as I would come across situations where there's low confidence in the salary numbers due to limited data, or missing / weird information about a company and interview experience. It'd be helpful to grow Glassdoor more by ensuring sufficient high quality data are available on the platform.

### "As a job seeker, this software has been my lifeline!"

March 29, 2021

5.0

Love it!! The company information that they provide has been the deciding factor several times when I am considering job offers.

Pros

I have used Glassdoor more times than I can count. This is my first stop when I am considering applying to a new job. The review feature is a brilliant concept. I love being able to see what a company offers (benefits, work life balance, culture) before I invest time applying to the company. Their job application feature has increased in quality over the years as well.

Cons

My only major complaint at this point is the app that they have released. For some reason, when you are searching for a job on the app, you are not able to look up the benefits of the company. You can only access this information on the website version of the software. One of the main reasons I use Glassdoor is to check company benefits (401k, insurance, PTO, etc.), so not being able to see this on the app seems a bit counterintuitive.
