The term “disruption” is used way too much in the digital world these days, but this week I am bringing you stats for a few companies that are truly making a difference in their respective industries. Yesterday we looked at Zillow (real estate) and today we explore a company that is disrupting the job market: Glassdoor.
Glassdoor is more than just a place for disgruntled ex-employees to go and vent about their company (yes, there is plenty of that going on there), but they are also doing interesting things in terms of salaries and industry research. When you hear about a jobs study these days, Glassdoor is often involved. Like Zillow is doing in the real estate space, Glassdoor is building aggregating a whole bunch of interesting and valuable user-generated data.
Here are a few of the more interesting Glassdoor statistics I was able to dig up recently. As always, I will be updating this post as I find new and updated stats, so be sure to check back occasionally or sign up for email notifications below.
This report is a digital collection of every Glassdoor statistic I have curated over the years as of August 2018. 35 of them including stats for:
- Users
- Companies
- Reviews
- Ratings
- Etc.- all in one place
I try to go through each and every stat regularly and update as much as possible, but we all know that some stats are easier to track down than others. As always, every stat is linked to its original source and has the source date listed.

Please note that some of these numbers are easier to find than others. A few of these stats come from Glassdoor’s own reports, but some are based on news reports and not official company tallies. Basically, this is the best I can find and I don’t guarantee anything to be 100% accurate.
