Context

What to Extract from Glassdoor

Pain points and buying signals:

• Low ratings in specific categories (management, career growth, compensation) suggest internal dysfunction
• Review cons that mention specific tools, processes, or systems being broken
• Complaints about "outdated technology," "manual processes," or "no data" are buying signals
• High turnover mentions indicate urgency for solutions
• Advice to management sections often contain the most actionable intelligence

Company health signals:

• Declining ratings over time = company in transition (good time to sell)
• Low business outlook rating = leadership uncertainty (budget may be tight)
• High CEO approval but low management scores = middle management bottleneck
• Growing headcount with declining ratings = scaling pain (your sweet spot)

Research Strategy

1. Search Glassdoor for the company and get their ID
2. Pull company overview for the big-picture health check
3. Pull 20-30 reviews and mine the cons and advice sections for pain points
4. Search Apollo for relevant decision-makers (VP/Director level in the department your product serves)
5. Google for recent news about the company (funding, layoffs, leadership changes)
6. Match their pain points to your product value props

What Counts as a Valid Result

• Only cite pain points that appear in multiple reviews (not one disgruntled person)
• Note the recency of complaints — problems from 3 years ago may be solved
• Flag the reviewer job titles when relevant (an engineer complaining about tools is more actionable than a receptionist)
• Distinguish between company-wide issues and department-specific ones
• Never fabricate review quotes — paraphrase or indicate themes

Output

Company Health Check:

• Glassdoor Rating: X/5 (from N reviews)
• Business Outlook: X% positive
• CEO Approval: X%
• Recommend to Friend: X%
• Trend: Improving / Stable / Declining
