Glassdoor sucks with out dates reviews and salary figures

Levels.fyi is suffering that too. When you filter by location and time it doesn't update charts. Salesforce has newer offices in some cities, and the average pay for roles in those cities are outpacing San Francisco on paper, just because the TC has gone up in recent years, and the levels.fyi numbers for the SF office are dragged down by data from years ago.

Glassdoor used to be good before companies started controlling and influencing their reviews. Blind seems to have started well for reviews. However, they have to ensure (I don't know how) companies are not able to influence it.

Blind is community based and trust-based. No HR can force you to leave positive feedback on Blind but they will for Glassdoor. Blind is for the purest of pure souls 😎👽

Glassdoor UI sucks

Oddly the Reddit style of blind seems to give me more confidence the data is genuine. It’s hard to mine and influence blind data because the data is not all in one place and easy to compare. It makes it hard to use but also hard to influence.
