Indeed Company Reviews Scraper

What does Indeed Company Reviews Scraper do?

Indeed Company Reviews Scraper collects employee reviews from Indeed company pages: the star rating, review title and text, pros and cons, the reviewer's job title, location and current or former status, the date, helpful votes and the five sub-ratings (work-life balance, pay and benefits, job security and advancement, management, culture). Every row also carries the company's overall rating and total review count.

It works on every Indeed country site: www.indeed.com, uk.indeed.com, de.indeed.com, fr.indeed.com, ca.indeed.com, jp.indeed.com and the rest. Paste a company link or just its name and click Start: the prefilled run returns 20 Google reviews in about 10 seconds. Because it runs on the Apify platform, you also get API access, scheduled runs, integrations (Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, webhooks), run monitoring and proxy rotation, which matters here because Indeed checks every visitor for bots.

Why scrape Indeed company reviews?

• Employer branding: follow what your own employees say, by job title, location and topic, and see how your rating moves over time.
• Competitor and talent research: compare employers on pay, management and work-life balance before you hire from them or against them.
• Investment and market research: employee sentiment is an early signal of trouble or growth at a company.
• HR analytics and AI datasets: thousands of labelled reviews with ratings, pros and cons for sentiment analysis or model training.

How to scrape Indeed company reviews

1. Open the company on Indeed, for example https://www.indeed.com/cmp/Google, and copy the address. The Reviews tab link works too. You can also type just the name that appears after /cmp/, such as Starbucks.
2. Optionally, use Indeed's own filters first (job title, location, topic, language) and copy the filtered address: those filters are kept.
3. Paste one link per line into Indeed company links.
4. Set Max reviews per company (0 means all of them) and the sort order.
5. Click Start, then download the results when the run finishes.

Input

Field	Type	Default	What it does
companyUrls	list of links or names	(required)	Indeed /cmp/ links on any country site, or bare company names. Plain strings and {"url": "..."} objects both work, with or without https://.
maxReviewsPerCompany	integer	100	Reviews to save per link. 0 saves every review Indeed lists.
sort	newest, highest, lowest	newest	Which reviews come first, and so which ones the limit keeps. A sort in a pasted link wins.
allCountries	boolean	true	On by default: every link, including a uk.indeed.com or de.indeed.com link, returns the company's reviews from all countries. Turn it off to get only the reviews Indeed's page shows for that site's own country (US for www.indeed.com, UK for uk.indeed.com). A country or location filter in a pasted link wins.
proxyConfiguration	proxy	Apify residential	Leave it on residential: Indeed refuses datacenter addresses.

How much does it cost to scrape Indeed reviews?

You pay per review saved: see the Pricing tab for the exact price. Companies that give nothing (not found, no reviews, unusable link) are never charged. The platform cost behind it is small: in our test runs 1,000 reviews took about a minute and used about $0.03 to $0.05 of Apify resources, mostly residential proxy traffic.

Tips

• Get exactly the reviews you need: filter on Indeed first (job title, location, topic such as Management, or language) and paste that link.
• Newest reviews only: keep sort on newest and set a small limit, for example 50, and schedule the run weekly.
• Worst reviews first: set sort to lowest to read complaints first.
• Several companies are read in parallel, so one run with many links is faster than many runs with one link each.

FAQ, disclaimers and support

Is it legal to scrape Indeed reviews? The Actor reads only public review pages that anyone can open without an account. Reviews can still contain personal data, such as job titles and locations, and are protected by Indeed's terms. Make sure your use complies with those terms and with data-protection laws such as the GDPR, and do not use the data to identify reviewers.

Why do I get fewer reviews than the company's review count? The count covers every Indeed site and language. With allCountries on you get every country; filters in your link narrow it further.

What happens to links that give nothing? Not-found companies, companies without reviews and links that are not Indeed company pages are skipped without charge and listed in the FAILED_INPUTS record in the run's key-value store, with the reason. If Indeed refuses a company's pages, that company is listed too; the run fails only when every company was refused.

Limitations: Indeed's bot check refuses many proxy addresses, so the Actor retries each page up to 8 times from fresh residential addresses. Some review texts are in the reviewer's language, not the site's. Employer replies are not included.
