Glassdoor

About the organisation

glassdoor.com is a U.S. job platform (founded 2007) where employees anonymously review companies — culture, salaries, management. It's owned by Recruit Holdings/Indeed (acquired for $1.2B in 2018; legally merged into Indeed on July 1, 2026). It hosts millions of reviews for ~600,000 companies, plus salary data and job listings. Free for job seekers, monetized via employer branding tools; it also publishes the annual "Best Places to Work" awards.

ShellCodeX evidence assessment

Strong record · 85/100. Strong record completeness based on identity, context and retained source evidence. This score does not verify the attacker's allegation.

• A plausible organisation domain is attached to the claim.
• The record includes organisation-specific context rather than only a victim name.
• Country attribution is available for geographic context.
• Sector classification supports peer-risk comparison.
• A source listing reference is retained for traceability.

What the listing means

Glassdoor appeared on the thegentlemen leak site on 30 August 2026. Groups publish a victim once negotiations stall or as pressure during them, so a listing usually means data was already exfiltrated — the attack itself is dated 28 August 2026, 1 day before the listing. This group has published 135 claims in the last 30 days and remains active.

Recommended actions

• Treat any unsolicited message referencing Glassdoor as suspicious — leaked data gets weaponised for phishing within days.
• If you hold an account on glassdoor.com, change that password now, update it anywhere you reused it, and enable two-factor authentication.
• Other Professional Services organisations should review this group's known TTPs and validate detection coverage against them.
• Watch for follow-on extortion: stolen data is often re-leaked or resold after the initial listing.
• A leak-site listing is a claim made by the attacker, not a confirmed breach — check the organisation's own disclosures before acting on it.
