We’re Going Global

… and we’re doing it with a few other salary improvements that members have been asking for since our launch in June. Now on Glassdoor you can see salary and total pay for any job at a company on one page, and more importantly you can filter by experience and location (with salaries shown in local currency for that location – see below).

This wasn’t as easy as you might think. People get paid in more ways than you can imagine and it gets even more complicated when you throw in local currencies and workplace conventions for more than 100 countries. Thankfully we were able to find a simple solution that addressed a few issues, and in doing so we have set the course for much broader international support.

There’s a lot more work to do and we’re still a ways from offering versions in local languages, but with this move we’ve made a commitment to deliver on the universal appeal of workplace transparency. Thanks to all the non-US community members for their patience, feedback and support as we work through some of our growing pains.

Trust us, we get that work matters no matter where you live – and we want Glassdoor to be there to help.
