When looking at or using platforms like Glasdoor one always has to take the "selection bias" into account. People posting on a platform selfselect.
And it is often when something is wrong, that one tends to feel the need to communicate that. When all is fine there often just is no need to communicate that.
So using Glasdoor without taking this into consideration is at least an interesting editorial decision.
