I generally assume their ratings are gamed, especially for smaller shops. I know I've been asked recently (in the last year) to review the company I'm currently working at on glassdoor by a superior. As you can imagine, I gave the place a good review.
A year later, they've laid me and all but 1 dev (the CEOs buddy) off and failed to do basic shit like send COBRA info and agreed upon severance payments, but their glassdoor doesn't reflect that, because glassdoor doesn't make it possible to edit reviews past 30 days. I suppose I could go delete the review at least
My last employer also asked us to put up glassdoor reviews, but that was when they generally had a good image on the site and had received a few (honestly undeserved at the time) negative reviews.
As things changed for the worse, my colleagues and I watched their rating slowly decline over the course of a year and a half. The higher ups quickly stopped mentioning it. They... do not have a good image on glassdoor anymore.
Are you able to submit a new review? I didn't leave my own review until after I was laid off, so I haven't bothered to "update" mine.
