Glassdoor Company Benefits API Documentation Get the benefit ratings of one Glassdoor company by category: for each benefit the average rating (1 to 5), the number of ratings, the number of comments and whether the employer verified the benefit, plus the total number of benefit reviews. These are aggregates only: the comment texts are not available. An unknown employer id returns a 404 error that is not billed. Costs 1 credit per successful request. Failed requests are not billed.
