Glassdoor, Inc., the leading global jobs and career community, today announced it closed $50 million in financing led by Tiger Global Management with participation by new investor Dragoneer Investment Group. Existing investors Battery Ventures, Benchmark Capital, DAG Ventures and Sutter Hill Ventures also participated. This brings the company's total capital investment since its inception to nearly $93 million.

Since Glassdoor introduced valuable transparency around salaries and work environments in 2008, it has built on its proprietary and ever-growing user-generated database to also become one of the largest job listing and recruiting platforms in the world. Only Glassdoor integrates its unrivaled data about jobs and companies with job listings to offer job seekers an unprecedented inside look at what it is really like to work somewhere.

'Glassdoor has rapidly become a critical player in the global recruiting market due to its extensive content platform and data insights that benefit both job seekers and employers,' said Lee Fixel, partner at Tiger Global. 'Glassdoor is well positioned to extend its strong market position both domestically and abroad.'

With more than 22 million members, Glassdoor now has data on nearly 300,000 companies in 190 countries, and already more than 25 percent of Glassdoor visitors originate from outside the United States. The company plans to use the capital to expand its team, accelerate international expansion, and further invest in products for job seekers and employers on mobile and desktop.

'The transparency Glassdoor creates around work has been a catalyst for change in how people search for jobs and research companies and how employers recruit top talent,' said Robert Hohman, co-founder and CEO of Glassdoor, Inc. 'This additional capital will allow us to further accelerate our growth and capitalize on our sweet spot at the intersection of social, mobile and data to deliver on our mission to help people find jobs and companies they love.'

'We're excited to partner with Glassdoor because we strongly believe in the company's mission to democratize information for job seekers and provide a powerful platform for companies to build their teams,' said Marc Stad, managing partner at Dragoneer. 'Glassdoor's approach is disruptive, and we see the opportunity for Glassdoor to become for jobs what TripAdvisor has become for hotels.'

Glassdoor continues to introduce useful recruiting resources and analytics for employers, which include both free and subscription-based services. More than 15,000 free employer accounts have been created, allowing employers to engage in the community and access basic analytics. An additional 1,400 employers subscribe to Glassdoor Talent Solutions, offering Enhanced Profiles, JobAds, Display Advertising, and Advanced Analytics. The rate of employers subscribing to Glassdoor Talent Solutions and the growth in associated revenue continue to accelerate.

Based 10 minutes outside San Francisco in Marin County, Glassdoor currently employs approximately 200 people and continues to hire. With plans to add approximately 100 new team members in the next 12 months, the company is in the process of relocating to a larger office space.
