Reminds me of a funny story at previous job…

 

An employee there was some pissed off about a few things they disagreed
with.  They decided to do a negative review on Glassdoor and let the world
know.  They wouldn’t put any of their personal details into the review
except they mentioned “worked in HR” as a comment.  Funny thing was that
they were the only person at that time who worked in HR .. ooops… ;)

Older positive are still there.  I know you can pay glassdoor for something.
Advertising, something...

 

So, I presume they are like the BBB.  Pay to play.

What about older positive reviews?

I can understand older reviews in general falling off at some point.
Otherwise, how would a company "fix" issues. So I would understand older
reviews, regardless of whether they're positive or negative "falling off".
OTOH, some way to reduce their significance would work too.

For example, if you were a service company, and had personnel issues 5 years
ago; replaced the problem employees (or other issue), and have gotten only
positive reviews since, why wouldn't you want those old reviews to be
reduced in significance, or dropped at some point? The issue for me is where
you draw the line.
