I was laid off two weeks ago due to organizational changes in our area. However, I later heard from a former coworker that our Director became aware of a negative Glint survey I had submitted, where I expressed concerns about our team being understaffed and overworked. I also noted that I hadn’t been receiving sufficient support from my manager.
I heard our Director has been intentionally searching for the people who have been bringing the reviews down
does HR even look at them to identify where there might be a problem? I know people who are scared to answer honestly because of repercussions, and on the flip side there are people who answer honestly to point out where something could be improved. It seems like the scores have zero impact on compensation changes or promotions
I can guarantee you that the surveys aren't anonymous. They show by location at grade levels and the managers can identify you . Its just a sh---y system designed to target you . There aint any good ever getting from this useless survey
@1br they can narrow down by location and grade level
Yes so not anonymous if they can track you down
@18c Being able to pull slices of data neuters anonymity.
The post from the director is correct: they’re anonymous, however, some PLs can back into who scored what based on individual conversations and a little math.
They are 100% not anonymous as I know two people who go in trouble for low scores. CS&S
Remember the scores from years ago.

I’m a director with two layers in my rollup and I swear on my existence Glint is anonymous. You can pull slices of data according to different filters like tenure ranges, location, etc. but if there are ever less than 4 respondents in a category it just gives you an “insufficient quantity of data” error. A leader with less than 4 directs can’t even see their report, it would just fold into broader averages. There’s also no place to type comments on the Glint survey it’s just clicking numerical scores to the questions.
Wow, this company is so toxic
The surveys are deceptive. Glint’s go-to-market strategy is to manipulate them. They do this by framing questions, providing interpretations, asking questions that alter inputs, and offering numerous ways to excuse bad scores. We can identify who said what via writing style, raw comments, location and other metadata. No intelligent person should respond.
Managers are smart enough to know who is not happy and behind poor glint scores though its anonymous
Can anyone confirm whether managers/directors know who submitted which glint survey? They say it's anonymous within a group of like 4 people so I usually submit fairly high scores or just skip the survey since I was always skeptical of the anonymity and it seems easy to find out but last year on one of the surveys I was sick of the management within the org and put pretty much the worst scores you could. Got laid off 2 weeks ago too. Surveys are a bunch of bs as if they think people actually put what they feel.
The only Glint survey response ANYONE should provide is NONE. Never, ever fill out the survey. A non response shouts louder than any score.
Don't ever share at work. The company is not your friend, nor our your co-workers.
