Question:

If glassdoor goes over every review to make sure it meets guidelines and then publishes it then why do negative reviews get removed. i had one removed and was told it didn't meet community guidelines, yet it had been published. i noticed about 10 negative reviews all removed that i have screen shots on from this company. its obvious the company has something to do with it. so what gives? certainly looks as though glassdoor cant be trusted

Answer:

Question:

Glassdoor have claimed to me that "we are a third-party company. this means, we do not recruit on behalf of companies, nor do we have information regarding any contact or application you may have submitted" if this is the case what contact do they have with the organisation who is recruiting?

Answer:

They are primarily a data collecting org. Building and selling databases for online marketing and probably collecting fees for any placements generated too. Either way, they make money selling us... where's our cut?
