If you want to fix your Glassdoor review, it’s really simple. As soon as you onboard employees, pressure then to leave Glassdoor reviews. Since they just started, they obviously approve, albeit ignorantly.

Which countries don’t allow a company to monitor activity on company equipment and company networks during company time?
IIRC Danish law states that work email may be used for private purposes and that anything clearly labeled as private is to be considered such. For example, by moving email to a folder called “private”. For the employer to open/read such communication would be highly illegal, akin to opening others private snail mail. I do believe that this also extends to corporate issued phones and computers. Especially since you’re…
so you get charged a tax when an employer gives you equipment required for work? What happens if you can't afford that tax then?
This feels very wrong - taxing someone for a potential benefit when it is not proven that such benefit exists.
Blind is more fun as they have a habit of forcing you to use your work email for "verification". They let other people on Blind too, but conveniently use that as a reason to kick them off if they say anything controversial.

Does Glassdoor require verified ID or something to sign up? Why don't people simply use a VPN and appropriate email to sign up and leave reviews?
Try to register an email address using a host that won't have you flagged as a malicious user should you use an account with that host to sign up for major company's services like Glassdoor. It's virtually impossible to use Tor to register an email address without activating JavaScript, and the email hosts that allow it are very sketchy, and my personal suspicions are that many of them are blatant honeypots.
Only TorBrowser by itself got escaped via JS.
Who tells us that these negative reviews are always true and not posted by some disgruntled or mentally ill employee or even someone who never worked there? I know it’s easy to side on the negative reviewer side on glassdoor but it’s an anonymous place and the employer has almost no chance of fighting back.
This is where web3 might finally have some use. Truely anonymous decentralised network for reviewing companies. No entity to subpoena and no server logs or user data anyway if they could.
It will be useless due to spam, unreasonably disgruntled employees posting lies, forced or fraudulent positive reviews, and even outright scams ("pay up or we will post a negative review every week"), etc. I wish it weren't so, but I'm afraid that will be the reality of it.

This Google shows all the companies listed within Google’s index with the “Glassdoor Alert: Employer Legal Action” flag; just kept removing the companies for the SERPs using the negative search operator until none were left. No idea why Glassdoor doesn’t just have a list of all the companies doing this. https://www.google.com/search?q=Glassdoor+Alert:+Employer+Le...
"did not match any documents"
Any mid or high level job you might as well just post under your name. There simply are too few people that have ever had your job and its only a matter of a bit of work to figure out who you are.
I wonder what the most common job by a single company in the world is? Amazon warehouse worker? Even if a few million people had that job I bet any HN data scientist could deanonomize almost every review.
After verifying that you work for a company, why don't they physically destroy everything that could be used to de-anonymize you, leaving with only some kind of public key and a proof of that you work for company X?
For the legal part I think there were some countries (IIRC Sweden) that doesn't require to keep any logs so that they can move operations there with an owned company and legally anonymize users.
I know it's much easier written here on HN than actually done, but that should be the intention: anonymous by design ground-up.
