Nice reminder to delete that account too!

Although it is now called "deactivate"

Rememeber to poison the data too!

Although it is now called "deactivate"

Which is funny, because after doing so they give you a popup messaging explicitly stating that your account is deleted.

Can't trust them at all.

not a user of glassdoor but how do you poison data?

Companies like to keep posts/comments/other data, but they rarely keep the history of changes you've made to that data.

So before deleting the account, replace all the data in it with garbage. Then it wont matter if they keep it.

name: bigdick
Last: daddy

unemployed

etc

never provide honest data to these 3p data aggregator clowns

Shouldn't you change your account info to something fictitious, though?

I am not sure if it matters as long as it is NOT true.

But I can see how making it some what believable might be more effective. Does anyone know?

Before you delete your comments and reviews change them to something very basic and neutral?
