My opinion has always been that Glassdoor is a useless resource in every regard.

  Let's not go crazy. It's great for mining which leetcode (or class of leetcode) problems you're going to be asked in the interview.

  It was great pre-2010-ish, and before it was compromised by its business model and subsequent acquisition; but those were always inevitable. Consider the proportion of GD's revenue from employer premium subscriptions vs from jobseekers (job listings, profile views). When there's lots of hiring, the jobseeker-related revenue will prevent the worst excesses. But in a downturn, there's less disincentive to not live off charging employers premium for reputation-washing. [It's not easy running a for-profit technical jobs board, let alone doing it ethically and delivering growth; StackOverflow Jobs was sadly killed off in 2022. One of SO Jobs's innovations (other than almost zero on-site advertising) was it allowed you directly interact with the hiring mgrs, so you'd skip days/weeks of non-technical preliminary interviews.]
