Every review I have posted on Glassdoor has been with a disposable email address, using my own device and using a public WiFi hotspot. I once had an employer try to get legal on me because I went to work for a rival after they laid me off - so I know some employers can be petty like that.

I trust Glassdoor to keep their promise of not releasing my ID voluntarily, but when courts get involved all bets are off.

I assumed everyone posting on Glassdoor used such opsec.

It’s like a “must be this talk to ride” sign at a carnival ride.

I've seen a fair few reviews for companies I used to work at where it was really easy to ID the reviewer as they were too forthcoming with details. Some people just don't see the potential dangers of posting negative reviews without properly hiding their ID.
