UNNECESSARY RE-COLLECTION OF DATA AND PII
After filling profile, searching and applying for many postings the app suddenly resets and ask me all my personal details again. There is no way to skip that UNNECESSARY RECOLLECTION OF DATA AND PII, this is specially alarming because all data you ask for IS PREPOPULATED so why, WHY WHY would I want to fill all of that AGAIN?? Moreover when I clicked on “why is my info pre populated” you said “we’ve VERIFIED that you already have a glassdor OR fishbowl account so we have filled in your MATCHING information. To edit….” 1 if its VERIFIED what and why are you asking? 2 if you’ve VERIFIED that I have an account howcome you say “OR” I mean don’t you know what you said you verified? 3 “MATCHING” with what?? 4 “TO EDIT”… I don’t wat to edit something I did correctly the first time only because you need to update your database or have outdated systems or for any other reason. I was under the impression this was a reliable app/site but this request of yours asking me to provide UNNECESSARILY what I already provided is simply not professional.Show lessjavDieguez

I started using Glassdoor several years ago and it was useful in getting insight into the the work environment, specific roles, and the interview process in a company from past and current employee reviews. In the last year or so, though, I can’t wrap my head around the changes that have been made to it which have essentially rendered it useless for me. What’s with all these community comments, notifications, bowls, and etc? Are they really necessary? It’s so tedious now to navigate around to find the reviews relevant to the company I’m looking up. Speaking for many of us, we just want to be able to get these insights conveniently, while contributing our own reviews to help others. I question the thought process behind implementing all these recent changes that have detracted the service/app so far away from its initial purpose and from what had kept me as a continued user. I went on it again today and once again have found this app just taking up storage in my phone and am considering just deleting it at this point.Show lessPotatooo94819813

Thanks for the feedback and apologies for the miss on our part. We are revamping the app search and navigation in upcoming releases early next year that will address many of the friction points. Don't hesitate to reach out the feedback@glassdoor if you'd like to share details with one of our product managers.Ugh
Everything is harder to access, navigate, and find. My saved jobs and saved salaries have been wiped out. Saved salaries doesn’t appear to be a thing anymore. Salaries are my biggest gripe. If I keyword search for ‘configuration’ within a company the app used to display any all job titles that had ‘configuration’ in it in the results list so I could see everything at once. Now however it only displays one job title at a time that’s selected from a drop down list. So if there’s an entry for ‘Senior Configuration Analyst’ and another entry for ‘Sr. Configuration Analyst’ your search results won’t display both together at the same time which is just plain dumb. I want to see all job salaries for all jobs that contain the word ‘configuration’ in them at the same time rather than having to searching and scrolling for them one at a time. It seems like the developers are intentionally trying to keep us in the app for longer periods of time by making the app much more complicated and cumbersome than convenience and common sense ease of use would otherwise imply.Show lessCall me Gideon
