Pros of working at Glassdoor

Great salary & benefits, almost FAANG-level.

Cons of working at Glassdoor

Bad work environment. Direct manager was not empathetic nor aware about the team dynamics, nor supportive of me being the best employee I could be. Very much the opposite of a "no-blame" culture.

Glassdoor benefits

Great health insurance at low cost. Company contributed to HSA.
