Glassdoor、最透明公开的就业与招聘信息平台之一,今天宣布其在欧洲扩张计划--在爱尔兰的都柏林开设一个办事处并推出本地化的爱尔兰网站 (https://www.glassdoor.ie) 和移动应用程序。业务扩张之际,Glassdoor 上面的评论也增加了不少,全球超过 1000 万的员工提供有关445,000多家公司的点评、 评级、 薪酬报告和其他工作场所的评价。
公司计划将 2016年1月开设的都柏林办事处作为其欧洲总部,未来三年估计会增加100 个就业机会。都柏林是其欧洲的第二个办事处,第一个是2014年在伦敦开设的办事处。
Glassdoor 一边向全球市场迈进步伐,另一边公司已经在美国本土得到了极大的发展,成为增长最快的职业网站,甚至超过了CareerBuilder.com。在glassdoor网站上,公司员工以匿名方式,根据网站上不同条目提供某个公司的真实工作情况--再也找不到像glassdoor这样透明的网站平台了。 与众不同的是,Glassdoor 的用户提交的内容在深度和广度上十分细致-- 例如根据网上披露的不同公司不同职位的工资报表, 求职者不仅可以看到年薪或小时工资,还可以看到各种奖金、 股票红利、 小费和其他形式的经济补偿,十分详尽。

GLASSDOOR EXPANDS IN EUROPE; LAUNCHES IN IRELAND, ANNOUNCES PLANS TO OPEN OFFICE IN DUBLIN
MILL VALLEY, Calif. (October 28, 2015) – Glassdoor, the world’s most transparent jobs and recruiting marketplace, today announced it is expanding its presence in Europe, announcing plans to open an office in Dublin, Ireland as it launches a localized Irish website (https://www.glassdoor.ie) and mobile apps. This expansion comes as Glassdoor surpasses 10 million employee-provided reviews, ratings, salary reports and other workplace insights for more than 445,000 companies around the globe.
The company plans to open its Dublin office as its European headquarters in January 2016 and estimates up to 100 jobs will be created over the next three years. Dublin is the second European office for Glassdoor, which opened an office in London in 2014.
While Glassdoor expands its global footprint, the company has also grown substantially within the United States, becoming the fastest-growing job site in the U.S., and surpassing CareerBuilder.com in U.S. traffic[1]. No other site combines job listings with such a vast array of user-generated content provided anonymously by employees revealing what it is really like to work at a company. What sets Glassdoor’s user-generated content apart is the depth and breadth of detail – for example, within a salary report on Glassdoor, job seekers can not only see annual salary or hourly pay, but they can also see cash bonus, stock bonus, tips and other forms of financial compensation, all specific to job title and company.
“Since the day we launched, Glassdoor has appealed to people around the world and our focus remains on bringing greater workplace transparency to job seekers and employers in every country. While today marks another exciting milestone in Glassdoor’s growth, we’re still just scratching the surface of what we’re capable of,” said Robert Hohman, Glassdoor CEO and co-founder. “Not only are we proud to see our business grow, we’re also excited to grow as an employer and welcome aboard talented professionals throughout Ireland and beyond.”
Glassdoor is a two-sided marketplace with active participation from employers in addition to employees and job seekers. Approximately 54,000 employers have a Free Employer Account on Glassdoor, which allows authorized company representatives to engage on the platform by responding to reviews, posting company updates, and accessing basic analytics. In addition, nearly 3,000 companies across North America and Europe are Glassdoor clients taking advantage of the company’s job advertising, employer branding and display advertising products.
The company, which is actively hiring, currently employs more than 550 people, primarily located in its headquarters in Marin County, just a few miles north of San Francisco.

掐架! ADP周二向竞争对手Zenefits发起诽谤诉讼
此文为HRTechChina编辑部编译, 欢迎个人转发分享。公众号,单位如需转载,请备注作者以及出处。如对HRTech方面有自己的见解、作品以及资讯,也欢迎大家投稿至tougao@hrtechchina.com
创业公司Zenefits目前获得巨大胜利,北加州地区的美国地方法院驳回了ADP的诉讼。根据和解条款,ADP 声明它相信 Zenefits 软件的安全性不存在问题,而Zenefits 则表明ADP 没有不道德的行为。
持续数月之久的官司最终以和解告一段落。这场争端始于 6月。有着50年历史的老牌公司ADP在6月份切断了Zenefits 小型企业客户使用ADP工资单系统,停止与Zenefits共享数据。ADP 指出它切断 Zenefits 是出于安全考虑:zenefits没有做好个人身份识别信息的保护工作,如社会保障号码。
作为反击,Zenefits 在其发布的一篇博客文章中指责 ADP 切断服务是因为他们推出了一款具有竞争性的产品。随后ADP 起诉 Zenefits 及其创始人康拉德 · 帕克,并在同一天推出一个名为 Opum 的服务和zenefits竞争。今年7月,Zenefits 称ADP 的诉讼无关紧要,并呼吁对方撤诉。曾经参与庭审的人员,如一个法官在 9月份说到 ADP 明显没有证据表明zenefits诽谤,以及唯一的问题是"诉讼将是缓慢的死亡还是快速的死亡"。
如今在法庭上,法官支持 Zenefits。
我们很高兴在法律上取得了胜利,不过相比之下,我们是更欣慰的是现在可以继续前进,专注于服务我们的小企业客户,"康拉德说在一次新闻发布会上说道,"有时,这可能意味着与 ADP竞争,而其他时候也可能意味着与 ADP 的合作。不管在什么情况下,我们(Zenefits)的目标始终致力于使HR管理这一辛苦的工作变得更轻松更少痛苦。
"双方争论的核心是指控质疑我们的道德和诚信,"ADP 在 给techcrunch 的一封电子邮件中如是说,"这些(诚信和道德)对ADP来说意义重大, 也是我们(企业)文化的核心。我们衷心希望 Zenefits能收回他们发表的毫无根据的公开声明。如果他们满足我们这一需求,我们会撤回诉讼。
ADP Drops Lawsuit Against Human Resources Startup Zenefits
The legacy payroll company ADP on Tuesday dropped its defamation lawsuit against its quickly growing competitor, Zenefits.
In a major victory for the startup, a U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California dismissed the lawsuit with prejudice. Per the terms of the settlement, ADP stated it has no reason to believe problems exist with the security of Zenefits software. Zenefits said on the record it had no reason to believe ADP is unethical.
The settlement brings a months-long legal battle to a close. The dispute began in June when ADP, a 50-year-old payroll company, cut off Zenefits small business clients who were sharing data with the cloud-based startup from ADP’s RUN payroll system. ADP stated that it blocked Zenefits due to security concerns because the company was not doing enough to protect personal identifying information, like Social Security Numbers.
Zenefits fired back with a blog post accusing ADP of cutting off the service because they were rolling out a competing product. ADP then sued Zenefits and its founder Parker Conrad, but on the same day launched a competing service called Opum. In July, Zenefits called ADP’s lawsuit frivolous and called for it to be dismissed. According to those in the courtroom, a judge in September said it was clear ADP had no defamation claim, and the only question was whether the “lawsuit will die a slow death or a fast death.”
Today in court, the judge sided with Zenefits.
“While we are gratified by this legal victory, we are more pleased that we now can move forward and focus on serving our small business customers,” Conrad said in a news release. “At times, this may mean competing with ADP, and at times, it may mean working with ADP. In either case, we at Zenefits are committed to making the hard work of administering HR as effortless and painless as possible.”
ADP said in a statement that the settlement would allow them to put the case with Zenefits behind them.
“At the core of our dispute were accusations that questioned our ethics and integrity,” ADP said in an email to TechCrunch. “These are meaningful values to ADP and core to our culture. All we have ever wanted was for Zenefits to retract the baseless public statements they made. We withdrew the lawsuit after Zenefits satisfied that demand.”

最酷的CEO们是怎样工作的?一家公司的CEO到底酷不酷?看看他的办公室就能知道。当然,很多酷公司的CEO并没有办公室,而是和员工一起在开放工位上办公。
但现在,新的办公风潮是,CEO不仅没有办公室,连固定工位都没有。据 Fortune 报道,众筹公司 Indiegogo 在旧金山有130位员工,包括实习生在内,每个人都有自己的工位——除了他们的CEO Slava Rubin。
他甚至都不把电脑带到公司,Rubin 在手机上处理公务,开会也都是很员工一边闲逛一边开。这让他能更好的了解公司里每个员工都在干什么,也方便他随时参与到员工的讨论中。
Rubin 并不是特例。Meetup.com、HubSpot 这两家公司的 CEO 也没有工位。HubSpot 的 CTO Dharmesh Shah 有自己的工位,但却经常要把自己的位置让出来给还没有获得工位的新员工坐。“这可以让公司的员工多了解我一点,比如我并不是一个只会在半夜给大家写邮件,在发布会的时候上台演讲的人。”他告诉 Fortune。
地图服务商 Mapbox 的高管也都没有工位,他们有时候在公司餐厅工作,有时候就在沙发上。他们的 CEO Eric Gundersen 表示,自己在哪里打开电脑哪里就是他的工位。
无工位办公并不是只是一种形式,而是真正能给公司的业务带来好处。前几周,Eric 听到几位员工在讨论解决卫星图片清晰度的问题,一位员工说他在一张照片上数清山坡上的羊。正好在前几天,Eric 坐到了公司销售员工附近,他了解到销售团队正在和新西兰一家地产商谈一个单子,于是他把这两个团队叫到了一起。
很快,在那个团队的帮助下,Mapbox 的销售团队在几个小时后就拿下了那个客户。作为 CEO,Eric 应该了解公司的一切,但如果每次都要开会才能知道进展,效率就会低很多。“如果你经常在员工里走动的话,有时候就会有这些运气。”他说。
