Glassdoor Scraper — Company Reviews & Ratings

Pull employee reviews from Glassdoor.com at scale — pros, cons, advice to management, an overall star rating plus six category sub-ratings, job title, employment status, tenure band, location and review date on every row. Built for HR analytics teams, employer-brand and talent-acquisition leads, and competitive-intelligence researchers who need a structured, exportable picture of what a workforce actually says about a company, without reading review pages three at a time and retyping them into a spreadsheet.

Why This Scraper?

• 40 fields per review — the reviewer's pros, cons and advice to management, the 1–5 overall star rating and six category sub-ratings, job title, employment status, length of employment, location, review date, helpful-vote counts, and the company's own public reply where one was posted.
• Nine core fields populated on 42 of 42 reviews — review ID, company ID, review link, review date, overall rating, pros, cons, company name and the current-vs-former employee flag, measured across a mixed sample of four languages and three company-size bands covering seven employers. Not a single-company sample, and not an estimate.
• Six category sub-ratings, and never a fake zero — career opportunities, compensation and benefits, culture and values, diversity and inclusion, senior leadership, and work-life balance. Reviewers can skip these, and a skipped category is stored as a zero; those rows ship empty instead, so a reviewer who rated nothing never drags your category averages toward 0 out of 5.
• Tenure that means what it says — length of employment arrives as one of four labelled bands (Less than 1 year, More than 1 year, More than 3 years, More than 5 years), reconciled against the wording the site itself displays, so a tenure band is never mistaken for a count of years.
• 11 company firmographics ride along with each review — turn on full details and every row also carries headquarters, company size, company type, revenue band, founding year, industry, sector, website, description, mission statement and the company's overall rating. Headquarters, size, type and the company rating came back for all seven employers sampled. One export doubles as a firmographic table; no second lookup, no joining by hand.
• Employer replies captured verbatim, with their posting dates — where HR answered a review publicly, the full reply text and the date it went up ship in the same row, so you can measure response rate and response lag.
• A direct link back to every review — each row carries its own review link, so anything flagged in a spreadsheet is one click from its source.
• Deep pagination, proven rather than promised — one company was walked 98 consecutive pages in a single run for 294 reviews with zero repeated review IDs. Depth is verified by ID, not assumed from a page counter.
• Named reporting when a search comes up short — if a search cannot be completed, the run says so and prints the exact URL it failed on, so a short dataset is never a silent one.

Use Cases

Employer Brand & Talent Acquisition

• Track your own overall rating and all six sub-ratings month over month, and see which one is actually moving.
• Benchmark against a named competitor set by pulling their reviews on the same schedule.
• Find the job titles and tenure bands where culture and work-life scores drop, and target retention work there.
• Pull real, quotable pros for careers-page and job-ad copy instead of writing them from scratch.

HR Analytics & Retention

• Segment sentiment by tenure band, employment status and location to see where attrition risk concentrates.
• Split current employees from former ones and compare what each group says.
• Measure whether reviews that received a public HR reply are followed by better ratings.
• Feed pros and cons text into your own topic modelling or sentiment classifier.

Competitive & Market Intelligence

• Compare compensation-and-benefits sub-ratings across a peer set before a comp-band review.
• Watch a competitor's culture and senior-leadership scores after a layoff, merger or leadership change.
• Build an industry or sector baseline using the company industry and sector fields that ship with every enriched row.

Investment & Diligence

• Screen an acquisition target for people risk: rating trend, senior-leadership score and business-outlook direction.
• Monitor a whole portfolio on one schedule and diff on the review date to see only what is new.
• Combine company size, revenue band and founding year with the rating trend for a single-table diligence view.

Data Enrichment & Integration

• Enrich a CRM or HRIS record with the employer firmographics that ride along on every review row.
• Export to Google Sheets, a warehouse or a BI tool straight from the dataset, in JSON, CSV or Excel.
• Schedule a recurring run and diff on reviewDateTime to surface only new reviews rather than reprocessing the whole history.

Getting Started

Simplest run

Open the company's reviews page on Glassdoor.com, copy the address bar URL, and paste it in.

{
  "searchUrls": [
    "https://www.glassdoor.com/Reviews/Google-Reviews-E9079.htm"
  ],
  "maxItems": 100
}

A deeper run on one company

{
  "searchUrls": [
    "https://www.glassdoor.com/Reviews/Google-Reviews-E9079.htm"
  ],
  "maxItems": 300
}

Several companies in one run

maxItems applies per search URL, so three URLs at 150 gives a 450-review run.

Input Reference

What to Scrape

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
searchUrls	array	—	Glassdoor.com search result URLs. Set your filters on Glassdoor.com, then paste the address bar URL here. Overrides the individual filters below when provided.
slug	string	—	Only used when Search URLs is empty. Glassdoor's own URL slug for the company, e.g. "Google" or "Azaé" -- the text between the language word and "-E
id	integer	—	Only used when Search URLs is empty. The numeric ID Glassdoor assigns the company -- the digits after "-E" in a Glassdoor reviews URL. Leave blank and use Search URLs instead; this exists only as a fallback.
maxItems	integer	100	Maximum reviews per search URL (0 = collect everything each search returns).

Options

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
reviewLanguage	string	``	Only include reviews written in one language. Glassdoor's review pages only show one language's reviews at a time -- leaving this on "Any language" gets you the set the company's own page shows by default (often already the largest one). Picking a specific language narrows results down to just the reviews written in it, which for some companies means far fewer results, not more, so only pick one if you specifically need that language.
enrichDetails	boolean	false	Add 11 extra fields per review. Adds one request per review and is billed at the higher rate.
concurrency	integer	8	How many requests to run in parallel. Lower this if you see failures.
proxyConfiguration	object	Apify Proxy	Proxy settings for the run.

Output

Every review is one dataset row. Enabling enrichDetails adds 11 further fields to the same row — there is no second record type to join.

The example below is a real captured review, taken from a run with full company details on. Reviewer names are never published by the source and never appear in the data, but job title, tenure, location and free text do — treat every review row as personal data.

Tips for Best Results

• Reviews come back one language at a time — plan for it. Glassdoor's review pages show a single language, and there is no "all languages" setting to turn on. Leave reviewLanguage on "Any language" to get the set the company's own page shows by default, then run again for each additional language you need and combine the datasets. It is worth doing: on one large employer, 686, 331, 847 and 232 reviews were reachable across four different languages.
• An empty result usually means the wrong language, not a missing company. A company with thousands of reviews overall can have none at all in the language you picked. If a search returns nothing, clear reviewLanguage or try another one before concluding the company has no reviews.
• Read a blank sub-rating as "not answered", not as zero. Reviewers can submit an overall star rating without touching any of the six category ratings — in a 42-review sample, 17 skipped all six. Average each sub-rating over the rows that actually carry it, or you will understate every category.
• Pull the company details once, then run the bulk pass without them. The 11 firmographics are identical for every review of the same company, so a short run with enrichDetails on gets you the company record, and the large sentiment run afterwards can leave it off and pay the base rate.
• Watch the final status message, not just the row count. When a search cannot be completed the run names the exact URL it failed on. Re-run that one URL rather than the whole set.
• maxItems is per search URL, not per run. Three URLs at 150 is a 450-review run. Set it to 0 to take everything each search returns.
• Diff on reviewDateTime to monitor a company. Schedule a recurring run and compare on this field to surface only new reviews instead of reprocessing the entire history each time.

Pricing

From $4.00 per 1,000 results (reviews only) or from $6.00 per 1,000 results (with full company details).

Results	Reviews Only	With Company Details
100	$0.40	$0.60
1,000	$4.00	$6.00
10,000	$40.00	$60.00
100,000	$400.00	$600.00

Those are the rates on Gold and above. Higher-volume plans pay less per result:

Your Apify plan	Reviews Only	With Company Details
No discount	$4.80	$7.20
Bronze	$4.50	$6.75
Silver	$4.25	$6.40
Gold and above	$4.00	$6.00

Per 1,000 results.

A "result" is one company review in the output dataset. When you run several searches at once, a review matching more than one of them is de-duplicated before it reaches the dataset, so you are never charged twice for the same review. The company-details rate applies only to rows that actually came back with those fields — if a company record is unavailable, the review is still delivered and charged at the reviews-only rate. Platform fees (compute, storage) are additional and depend on your Apify plan.

Every review is written by an individual.
