Glassdoor Reviews Scraper

Extract employee reviews from Glassdoor for any company, by company URL or employer ID. One result = one review.

Why use this actor

• No account, no login, and no API key required
• Full review history — not just the first page (thousands of reviews per company)
• Full review detail: rating, pros, cons, advice, job title, location, employment status, and date
• Per-category ratings (work-life balance, culture, compensation, career, leadership, diversity)
• Sort by relevance or newest-first
• Employer responses included when present
• Stable JSON output suitable for pipelines, sentiment analysis, or databases
• Automatic retries and IP switching if a request is temporarily blocked

How it works

1. You give the actor one or more companies — a Glassdoor company link (Reviews or Overview page) or just the employer ID number.
2. The actor collects every review with its full detail, paging through the company's entire review history (50 reviews per page).
3. Results stream into your dataset, ready to download as JSON, CSV, or Excel.

You don't manage scrapers, browsers, or retries — the actor handles all of that.

Notes

• The actor reads a company's entire public review history — set maxReviewsPerCompany: 0 to collect all of it (large companies have tens of thousands).
• sort: "DATE" returns newest reviews first; "RELEVANCE" matches Glassdoor's default ordering.
• Residential proxy is recommended; the actor switches IP automatically if temporarily blocked.
