Glassdoor
[Glassdoor.com] is well suited for larger, older organizations who have had time to build up a reputation in the market and have lots of employees come and go. This means that job seekers will have a lot more data to peruse when it comes to company reviews, interviews, salaries, etc. simply because there is a larger pool of people to provide such information. If you are a small or new organization, [Glassdoor.com] might not be helpful for candidates trying to learn more about your company.

It would depend on the company size. From experience, it does not serve us well but it might work better for a different company or industry

Cons
Glassdoor
  • Glassdoor is an expensive product and price needs to be lower for employers.
  • They have to find a way to stop companies from rigging their ratings by asking their employees to post positive reviews.
  • Also, somehow they need to figure out if the negative review is an attempt to show their frustration by an employee rather than the true picture of the organization.

  • The response rate of the candidates(but that isn't Ladders fault)
  • Only one user can access the account which does not serve us well as we have several people that work on Executive positions.
  • From experience, The ability to get candidates to respond to you was awful

Support Rating
Glassdoor
Support is generally excellent, but there can be a fair amount of bureaucracy at times for requests. The support people are very knowledgeable of the platform, but sales seem to regurgitate the same info when trying to negotiate or upsell a client. Technical issues are rare and usually solved quickly.

Alternatives Considered
Glassdoor
LinkedIn is the most direct competitor and to be honest Glassdoor's offering does not match up. LinkedIn's product is superior as it is more developed, more precise, you can get more insights as an applicant and as a business. I would use both services but Glassdoor would not be my first choice.

Return on Investment
Glassdoor
  • Positively affects how informed our job candidates are when they apply for a job
  • Positively affects the number of applicants we receive for any given job posting
  • Takes more time than some other job boards to maintain and analyze the data
