Really, both of these sites use the same business model in that they work on your site's reputation and credibility. But glassdoor frames itself as a recruitment and hiring platform and has better interface overall, that's why it ranks higher on most SEO pages for businsses over sitejabber.
Companies are hiring freelancers overseas now to write fake positive reviews. They are staying within Glassdoor's "rules" and using different IP Addresses and spacing out the reviews so it's not as suspicious. Unfortunately Glassdoor doesn't seem to be catching these reviews or deleting them so it's skewing companies to look better than they actually deserve / are. Anyone with half a brain can see these reviews are fake b/c the English is poor and they are very short but they help inflate the companies overall rating. Beware.
Usually in the ballpark of what to expect salary wise. When looking for a job, salary info may help you decide if you want to apply
I used their data to link together my study on human behavior and the effect of economics. The comments really helped me to form a greater picture on Job Satisfaction and Economics. Glassdoor really helps employees to shout out some great suggestions!
It has been helpful in several ways: primarily the reviews from employees working at various companies, although some have been written obviously by management to counter terribly negative reviews; also, the pay estimates, although they are only estimates and should not be used to base an answer to a query of what salary you are looking to receive; and some of the job offerings.
So far it looks like they scour company websites for open positions and not just refer you back to monster. So i have been using it a lot lately.
