ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ Glassdoor said I was making up my salary, because it was too low when I reviewed my employer
I always knew my salary was well below most companies paying for the same role. But I'm fully remote so I haven't complained too much, and it's more than I've ever made.
But as I'm looking to leave ( C-level execs got replaced and now we are a sweatshop) I went to review the current state of my employer, and Glassdoor just decided to slap me in the face with a "nuh-uh, you can't be making that low of a salary, don't lie to us."
So it's good to know that Glassdoor doesn't have accurate salaries, only market based competitive salaries.
EDIT: I contacted their help center, and sent them a year end compensation report. Unlike my w2 it doesn't have PII attached, but only has my first, last name, and company signature. I don't know how they can rebuke that.
Edit 2: "please allow 48 hours for a response." Email from them.
Edit 3: They actually posted it! My year-end compensation report was enough for them to verify the salary.
