Users say Glassdoor added real names to user profiles without their consent

Glassdoor users allege the company has been appending real names and other personal information to their profiles without consent—sometimes inferred from support emails or other sources—raising concerns about anonymity, potential exposure through legal requests, and heightened risk if a data breach occurs. Glassdoor maintains reviews remain anonymous and declined to detail verification or data request practices, prompting criticism from privacy advocates who say the policy undermines user trust.
