Pros

The acquisition ($$$) I am generally proud of the work I put out, despite serious lack of leadership within the marketing org as of late Flexible hours (good for families)

Cons

Transparency and company/team vision have gone completely out the window. This has been an issue long before pre-acquisition...we need a GLINT survey stat. Marketing leadership says that we "are more aligned than we have ever been" yet our QBR made it clear that it's not just my team that is getting insufficient direction and support from the top. Everyone is scrambling. Maybe leadership is just waiting for their check to leave. I'm coming up on a work anniversary and then I will be leaving. It's likely many others will do the same since no one knows what is going on.

Thank you for taking time to write a review and share your thoughts. Your feedback is something we take to heart. We know it’s important that you feel you can come to work and feel proud of your work output AND we know it’s important that you also get the kind of leadership that is creative, supportive, motivational and more. If you’re open to coming to share your feedback I’d love to hear from you. I’m not planning to cash out and leave anytime soon - that’s not the type of person or leadership team you have. We believe in the mission, vision and the strategic priorities we as a company and as a department set out to achieve earlier this year. Your leadership team is fully present and engaged - we’re here to build a great team and support the business. I’ll hope you’ll take the opportunity to share more feedback and be a part of the team that I think will continue to achieve some great things for those we aim to serve: job seekers and employers.

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.
