Beyond external stakeholders such as shareholders, creditors, and governments, the interests of employees deserve appropriate protection from companies, as employees are the primary value creators within organizations. 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.

  Employee review systems originated in major internet companies, initially designed to help job seekers quickly understand a company's efforts in protecting employee interests when evaluating potential employers. Furthermore, employee assessments of their employers provide valuable reference points for other societal stakeholders, including industry peers, media, and regulatory bodies, in evaluating corporate practices.

  The Glassdoor U.S. Company Employee Review Data released by CnOpenData comprises two tables: the Basic Information Table and the Employee Reviews Table. These encompass fundamental company details alongside employee evaluations of employers—covering satisfaction with work, company culture, and environment—as well as metrics on compensation, benefits, cultural values, company outlook, and recommendation likelihood.
