Pros

Incredible team! Kind bosses - Sarah and Dawn are the nicest people I've ever had the privilege of working for! Remote work Great pay - $20/hr 1099 contracted via UpWork Long job duration, lasted 4 years at FishBowl even after being acquired by Glassdoor.

Cons

My entire moderation team was laid off by Glassdoor without much notice in advance (approximately 2-weeks notice) after the product team made incredible changes to the Fishbowl admin and streamlined our workflow. I would imagine our work is being either offshored to people who would accept less pay or otherwise will be taken over by AI.

Pros

The benefits and culture were probably the best I've ever had. Even better than the benefits were the people I worked with. I enjoyed coming into work and doing my job and really stood behind the company tag line of helping people find jobs they love.

Cons

During covid things started getting bad. Like many other companies layoffs came around and how the company handled those were terrible. You show up one day and next thing you know you lose access and cryptic email and then your'e gone. This happened again in 2025. They brought in person whose job it was to basically get people to leave. They didn't care about the content on the site, or any of the efforts in place to promote integrity and transparency and instead just wanted to shove AI down everyone's throat. What's sad is that Glassdoor was once a great company that I was proud to say I worked for. Now it's just like everywhere else, AI, AI, AI and trying to get people to quit before the next round of layoffs.
