any one know how glassdoor verifies the authenticity of employee reviews ? Glassdoor
I’m not sure what I’m doing. I’m 9 months into a new sales job and everyday I have a feeling of incompetence and straight up DOOM. I have a clear idea of what I’m suppose to be doing but keep falling on my face. Someone please tell me I’m not crazy, but does anyone else feel like they have no idea what they are doing?
I’d way rather take a quick no right out of the gate than spend months babysitting a pipeline full of maybes that are never going to close. Are you glad when they just cut to the chas or do you try to save the deal?
I have sat in forecast calls where everyone on the team was performing total confidence theater and the number we called had almost no relationship to what was actually in the pipeline, and I never quite understood who that exercise was actually for. How does your company run forecasting and does it feel like a tool that actually helps you sell or mostly just something that exists for leadership comfort?
So I just wrapped up a third interview for a Sales job. It went great and they even offered me a job, told me to look out for the offer letter. A week went by and today they said they're moving in a different direction with a different candidate. Is this common? I don't know how to feel about this.
I spent a long time thinking moving into management was the obvious next step in a sales career, and then watched several of the best reps I knew become mediocre managers almost overnight, which made me rethink the whole ladder. How do you think about career growth in sales, and does your company have a real path for individual contributors who don’t want to manage people?
Thanks for posting. Happy to help provide insight here. At Glassdoor, we strive to ensure the highest level of data integrity. Since we're unable to fully verify the identity of an anonymous user, we require each user to certify their employee relationship to the company when they post any content. We require email verification from a permanent, active email address or a valid social networking account for each user submitting content. This verification process allows us to put measures in place to identify suspicious users and/or posts. Additionally, before any content appears on Glassdoor, it is evaluated to determine if it meets our Community Guidelines. If the content does not meet the guidelines, appears suspicious, or we have sufficient reason to believe it is unauthentic, it will not get posted on Glassdoor. We also rely on our members to help keep the integrity of our site. If a member sees content they believe violates our community guidelines, they can flag it for additional review by our moderators.
That prompted me to go to my company on glassdoor last night. There was one obviously not meant for my company (based on the comments and location give ) and 1 particularly nasty one from an anonymous current but very disgruntled employee.
However, I think they rely on people reporting inappropriate reviews.
I'm not really sure they can ever really know for sure, which is frustrating.
This is a good question but it's both employees and people who have worked
Impossible unless you make former employees send you old W-2’s before they leave a review.
My old company has some (deservingly) scathing reviews up. I saw something earlier where a lot of companies were reaching out to Glassdoor to take down bad reviews....I have mixed feelings about this
