It gives hilariously low numbers for some companies
Yes, it is absolutely garbage
Does anyone have a recommendation for a more up to date site or app?
Blind is trying to get TC data now.
If there are enough reports for a job title where the confidence is very high, i’ve found it to be pretty accurate for the places I’ve worked. Keep in mind you have to filter by location and years of experience otherwise the range will be so wide the info will be useless. Also, for places with equity and bonus compensation, you have to add the averages for those to the base salary to get the average TC. Glassdoor doesn’t do this for their “total compensation” which makes the salary look really low for places that have additional compensation. The one case where I’ve seen it be off is if the company made a significant change to their pay bands. Glassdoor won’t reflect that change until there’s enough new reports (which could be a while). My recommendation would be to use the average pay for the title/location/yoe, and add 10-20% and it will most likely still reasonable that you could get that much for the position.
Apparently glassdoor makes candidates lowball themselves by giving this wrong information
Yes, big time
Glassdoor is a bag of garbage information
Its junk
