I need a Glassdoor account AND a review of a previous employer to see reviews on the website
It also asks me to use the app.
I was trying to look up the company where I was thinking of applying, but it said I needed to sign in to view the review, so I entered some fake information. Once I was signed in I went back to the page thinking I could read the review, but now I need to write a review before I get access to Glassdoor!
Glassdoor officially became dead to me last year, when they made everything "opt out" in terms of privacy. It made the rounds and I know they lost a good chunk of reviewers. With this it makes sense, engagement is probably low and they're desperate to bring numbers up.
Screw them, they became company focused instead of user focused, there's zero reason to give them reviews anymore. Companies can pay to remove reviews, they are not as private, there's no reason.
The difference with linked in is that I don't use linked in personally. I only use it in my role as an employee or as a job searcher or as a member of some community. I don't have any personal info on there, except for the basics that are already out there.
