I think rather than removing reviews, Glassdoor should allow the company to respond to them, similar to how Google does. It can lead to company reviews showing just how right the original review was.
For example, I posted a review of a restaurant on Google basically alerting people to the fact that the restaurant's "call ahead" feature doesn't do anything as you don't actually go on the seating wait list until you check in and then you're at the bottom of the list. I further went on and stated that my wife and I left the restaurant and went to another one where we were eating our dinner before we were notified our table was ready.
The response was a bot response along the lines of "How was your steak?"

Quote: Companies encouraging staff to leave more positive reviews is a common way to increase the score. Glassdoor itself naturally encourages companies to have more employees add reviews in order to combat negative reviews.
A previous employer tried having HR/senior management/their sycophants blast a bunch of vacuous rainbow and unicorn reviews while the company was in the middle of a salary freeze and undergoing about a 30% reduction in headcount over a year or year and a half due to not being able to win new contracts faster than old ones ended. The net result was regular workers grew more contemptuous of senior management and the rate of bad reviews from people unhappy that they or their friends were unemployed due to management incompetence surged to counter the BS and tank overall scores again.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Every time a new iPhone comes out, a team of technicians in the French city of Toulouse start to pull it apart. In the three years they’ve been doing this, they’ve found a device that’s gradually transforming into a fortress. Today’s iPhones are packed with parts that cannot be repaired or replaced by anyone other than an expensive Apple-accredited repair shop. And France doesn’t like that one bit. A few days ago I read articles saying that Apple is gaining significant market share because Apple phones are used longer, years longer, than Android phones. Now I'm reading that Apple makes their phones last shorter, by planning its obsolesence. I'm confused.

Good quality products is bad for business, people don't need to buy a new one so soon.
And since the "oh... a new shiny Apple has come" segment of the market starts to not buy each and every released device...
well, 2+2 = 4

Microsoft says a Chinese cyberespionage group it tracks as Volt Typhoon has been targeting critical infrastructure organizations across the United States, including Guam, an island hosting multiple military bases, since at least mid-2021. Remember, hacking is more than just a crime. It's a survival trait.

Two trends in higher education nationwide are colliding at the University of Maryland: booming enrollment in computer science and plummeting student demand for the humanities. So what you're saying is, my Humanities degree is going to be more in demand soon ... right?

The Massively Multilingual Speech (MMS) project expands speech technology from about 100 languages to over 1,000 by building a single multilingual speech recognition model supporting over 1,100 languages (more than 10 times as many as before), language identification models able to identify over 4,000 languages (40 times more than before), pretrained models supporting over 1,400 languages, and text-to-speech models for over 1,100 languages. Great, now the Terminators will be barking orders at each other in languages I can't understand.

In March and April 2023, the Python Software Foundation (PSF) received three (3) subpoenas for PyPI user data. All three subpoenas were issued by the United States Department of Justice. The PSF was not provided with context on the legal circumstances surrounding these subpoenas. In total, user data related to five (5) PyPI usernames were requested. I'm guessing some poor typosquatter managed to hit a government agency and is about to get alphabet soup all over him.

Well... the question is, what is the real reason for it?
At least I think the making it public and saying what they gave and where there is no data is a nice move by PSF.

I think Sean's guess in the initial post is probably right except for the bad actors probably being in a country that won't extradite them to the US.

A sapphire crystal weighing 16 micrograms is the largest object ever to exist in a quantum-mechanical superposition of two vibrational states. Researchers at the Hybrid Quantum Systems Group at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETH Zurich) excited the crystal into vibrations such that its atoms oscillated back and forth simultaneously and in two opposite directions—putting the entire crystal in what is known as a state of quantum superposition. I feel both smarter, and dumber having just read the referenced material
