This is what happens right before the major money holders abandon ship. There’s no way they don’t know this is business-suicide. I bet they got a big payday from some companies that paid Glassdoor to shoot itself in the face!

Yep, we've seen this happen over and over before

i don't really see a point in federating employment reviews, but there certainly needs to be a non profit providing such a service

I'm normally not a conspiracy dude, but this just fucking SCREAMS sabotage to me.
