Pros

We are building toward a really compelling and revolutionary product vision, making it a fun time to work on the Product & Design team. I truly like and respect the colleagues and partners I work closely with. Lots of autonomy and flexibility as an employee, especially with respect to work from home and work/life balance.

Cons

We are experiencing a lot of attrition, so resources are strained on project work and due to time we have to invest in hiring new teammates.

Thank you for the feedback and for your commitment to shaping and delivering on our product vision! I am so excited for what's next for us here at Glassdoor and agree our opportunity to shape the future here is truly, "compelling," work. I would also agree with your advice regarding investments in our Design team and I can assure you this is the #1 priority for me to address in my first few months here. I am confident that we are committed to doing what is necessary to ensure Design is a competitive advantage here at Glassdoor. Thank you again for your contributions to our team and for exhibiting our culture of radical transparency. You can hold me personally accountable and please continue providing your voice to the team; feedback is a gift and essential to our ability to achieve our goals. - Eric Breier, VP of Product Design

Pros

The benefits and culture were probably the best I've ever had. Even better than the benefits were the people I worked with. I enjoyed coming into work and doing my job and really stood behind the company tag line of helping people find jobs they love.

Cons

During covid things started getting bad. Like many other companies layoffs came around and how the company handled those were terrible. You show up one day and next thing you know you lose access and cryptic email and then your'e gone. This happened again in 2025. They brought in person whose job it was to basically get people to leave. They didn't care about the content on the site, or any of the efforts in place to promote integrity and transparency and instead just wanted to shove AI down everyone's throat. What's sad is that Glassdoor was once a great company that I was proud to say I worked for. Now it's just like everywhere else, AI, AI, AI and trying to get people to quit before the next round of layoffs.
