In addition to external stakeholders such as shareholders, creditors, and governments, the interests of employees deserve proper protection from companies, as employees are the primary creators of value. Enhancing a company's competitiveness in the product market fundamentally requires improving employee satisfaction. Only with higher satisfaction and well-being can employees maintain stronger work motivation.

The employee review system was pioneered by major internet companies, initially designed to help job seekers quickly understand a company's efforts in protecting employee interests when selecting an employer. Moreover, employee evaluations of their employers provide valuable references for other stakeholders, such as industry peers, media, and regulatory bodies, to assess corporate performance.

CnOpenData's Glassdoor Global Employee Review Dataset comprises two tables: Basic Information Table and Employee Review Table. These include company profiles and employee evaluations covering job satisfaction, corporate satisfaction, environmental satisfaction, compensation and benefits, cultural values, corporate outlook, and recommendation willingness.
