{{ Advert}} was added to the article in Feb 2014. Not much editing has happened since then. I don't think the article sounds overly like an advertisement, though it is positive in tone throughout. I'll not remove the hatnote, but just thought I would note that I don't really agree with the assessment. --User:Ceyockey ( talk to me) 01:09, 13 April 2014 (UTC)
Editor, please stop reverting my edits. Glassdoor.com is down, and has been down for days, if not weeks. Go look at the site yourself if you don't believe me. There's no point talking about a website in the present tense if it's defunct. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.142.44.112 ( talk) 15:05, 27 June 2014 (UTC)
"The company was cofounded in 2007 by Tim Besse, Robert Hohman, who serves as the company's CEO, and Expedia founder Rich Barton, who serves as the company's Chairman.[4] The idea came from a brainstorming session between the two of them..."

User:Jffernandez has been adding a criticism section to the article. I've removed it twice now because I feel like it is based on weak sources and reads like original research. The tone in the most recent edit is unencyclopedic and seems WP:POV in nature. Many of the sources are weak, including Quora questions, and many speak to only general concerns about criticism on the internet. I think this section shouldn't exist in the form that Jffernandez is submitting. I welcome other discussion so as to not continue an edit war. only ( talk) 00:09, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
The original article was redacted in an excessively positive, misleading way, not neutral, almost looked like a commercial or a paid advertisement from the company, the main sources were the corporation itself or its investors or the announcements or advertisements they paid in 'official' media, the content was skewed towards the company, included little critical content from third-parties, no content from those who criticized it, it made no mention of the journalistic articles that have been published in respected media like the Wall Street Journal or the Washington Post and that are critical to the company, it did not contain the 'Criticisms' section so usual in other articles. I took the liberty of proposing a 'Criticism' section, please feel free to add to this section or edit it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jffernandez ( talk • contribs) 16:28, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
It should most certainly be mentioned that Glass Door is owned by the same company that owns Indeed and that hence, they are essentially the same company.
I JUST finished applying to a job to work at Glassdoor's HQs in San Francisco and when I attempted to preview my resume, I was actually redirected to Indeed's website. In fact, at the very bottom of the application it read "Indeed 2021."
I think it is of utmost importance for the public to readily know about the relationship between Indeed and Glassdoor and that its owner, Recruit Holdings, is essentially a monopoly.
I literally came to this article BEFORE applying to Glassdoor to know more about Glassdoor and this article is honestly lacking in many regards.
This article is in dire need of a CRITICISM SECTION!
I will go further to state that clearly someone or some persons from Glassdoor/Indeed have done a very good job of keeping this article "clean." Others have mentioned this as well.
I would like to see this article be more clear and transparent.
Suffice it to say that after having multiple deceptive experiences with interviewing to work for Indeed, I would never have bothered with applying at Glassdoor. 108.29.152.48 ( talk) 23:28, 1 June 2021 (UTC)
Mods: Should below be added to Controversy section?
Basically you now either provide your personal information on Glassdoor (defeating the purpose) or they will try to scrape it off your social connections.
