Comment on Users ditch Glassdoor, stunned by site adding real names without consent

Glassdoor and all other businesses that operate on the “holding companies hostage” model are trash, always have been, and people who use them should know better / expect this type of behavior. They are imo even lower than the Facebooks and twitters of the world.

Not surprising.

I don’t know, holding companies hostage sounds great. Companies already hold employees hostage in many ways (life essentials, healthcare, etc).

I would agree, but Glassdoor didn’t always used to be like this. When they started it was an extremely great premise, and people flocked to it. Glassdoor was to exiting a company as LinkedIn was to entering a company. But they got greedy, they dropped their (very high honestly) morals to try to cast a wider net. They started catering to businesses rather than the people providing the information.

I remember when they started enforcing accounts just to see salaries and companies and knew it was well over then. It used to be free information for anyone to check on a company, now it’s just garbage. I don’t trust the reviews, companies push employees to make fake reviews, and it’s all trash.

At my first full time job my supervisor specified that I coups hang up on anyone who brought up their lawyer, used abusive language, or brought up the BBB.
