Wait, What? Glassdoor Now Shares Your Name With Employers? Recent changes to Glassdoor's policy seem to make it less anonymous. Will job seekers still use Glassdoor as a salary, job review, and research tool?

@annapatton4544 2 ай бұрын

Agree. At my previous job we had an anonymous feedback questionnaire every 6 months. Sure enough, about a month after it, our HR would call our personal phones to ask you answered this and that to the questions, and she would actually quote you exactly. And besides that, before the review, our boss always take sure to tell us, that he is friends with HR and he would know who wrote what. So before leaving the company, I wrote exactly all of it in my review, that we had right before I left. Oh the wheels started turning very quickly, they asked the boss to leave. They have an amazing new leader now (there is a special place in my heart for her, she grew me from a scared lost child into a firm professional), I am so happy for that branch. Even though we are competitors after I left for another company, we have great relationships and I am still quite fond of the company in many ways. They still treat their employees better than my current company does. Which is just a meat grinder. Though pays well.

I think it's at a point where some of the people genuinely don't even know how to treat people fairly, and so they go with avoiding retribution because that's all they know how to do. It's not necessarily because they're stupid mind you; while treating people fairly isn't particularly difficult, it does empower and embolden them. You'd think that'd be a good thing, but being in charge of bold and powerful people requires leadership skills, something the world today is desperately lacking.

Not much reason to put a Glassdoor review up considering the following. 1. they only allow each individual to submit only one review, per employer, per year, per review type (e.g. company review, interview review, salary review, benefits review, etc. 2. They have a type of ats system they will remove reviews if its detailed, long or has any form of strong opinions even if you provide Glassdoor via their ticket system with emails of you invites to interviews and rejection letters. 3. reviews can be mass reported in order to force it to be removed. This can be abused with software. 4. Reviews drop off after a period of time. its isn't permanent. 5. pay for a contractor and pay for an employee at the same company aren't the same and its never specified. 6. this use an ats to auto reject certain reviews.

Ya, that's what all the European laws like GDPR are all about. The US doesn't care about employees, otherwise we would have similar laws by now. California is one of the few progressive exceptions.

"We really need some kind of patent, or trademark, or copyright protection for our personal information" - it's already there: GDPR. It exists for years now. Too bad the US refused to implement it.

Glassdoor used to have the "Know your worth" analysis but seems like it is either got removed or hidden after COVID, so I now go with salary website and look at the salary trend as well as next level title. Luckily I have access to my company's salary range across various paygrade up to executives so I can leverage that to compare against external information as well as look at comparatio. I used my "network/online" name when signing up website accounts.

Glassdoor is making pressure putting "police state tactics", sold-out to defend corporations under criticism from any kind of labor abuse or wrongdoings. Employees should not allow this assault on civil liberties, as freedom of speech. Companies dealing with corruption, misrespect on employees or other hard affairs don't take well bad reporting, but is necessary. Thanks Bryan for speaking out and get well soon.

ya im done, your right they cant come back after you for severance, but they could use the information for a slap suit if you found your company sucked and said so. once you document your name even if they don't pst there are a ton of legal ways to get at it or hackers even - hard pass

A while ago I had written a critical review about my ex-employer. The review was published on 5-th page in the list of reviews about that company. There was no visible reason for that. Not by ratings, not by posting time, or any other metric I could think of. Just randomly away from the top results right away. And yes, there were job ads by that company right next to the list.

Hey, Lockheed tried that with me on the severance package they offered during the lockdowns. I told them where they could insert that. I lost a lot of money, but God provided me with other opportunities. I'm so happy to hear companies can't do that to people anymore.

@JustMe99999 2 ай бұрын

The employer fake reviews are a real problem. I worked for an absolutely awful startup; every time someone leaves a negative review of it, the employer posts 5 or 6 good reviews in succession. It's so obvious, but Glassdoor doesn't do anything about it.

Thanks for the video and I was just wondering about whether it's anonymous to leave a review on this site. I agree with some of the comments that wait for at least some time after you leave the company if you want to write a review especially you need to pay attention to the paper you need to sign in order to get the severance package.
