How are some companies maintaining a 4+ rating on Glassdoor?
Are these real reviews or fake reviews / managed reviews ?? I don't believe any company could be so good for ~80/90% of folks working there , and that none of the "bad hires"/ ex-employees decide to go on a rant on Glassdoor against the company ...

In one of the start ups that I worked for, HR made the employees write reviews and give good ratings. They also made several accounts and gave fake ratings to boost the ratings. Not too difficult to game the ratings really. Best way to know about the company is to reach out to current or ex employees in your role, and ask them for feedback.
If you ask an employee to write a glass door review within their first 2 weeks, it’s highly probable that they’d give you a good rating.
They’re not there in the system long enough to know the cons and they’re not going to remember to update the Glassdoor review ever.
Just like some “brick sellers” have 4+ on flipkart
They are mostly fake for a lot of companies.
New joinees get mail to do good rating.
And then fake eating from HR or third party rating teams.
Have seen both of scenario in one of my employer first hand.
It’s easy to check fake reviews since Glassdoor shows a chart of ratings over time
Salaries are fake for sure, you should ask 3-4x of what is shown there.
Remember those 10rs home based data entry jobs? You have loads of them doing such work all you need is an army of people and content to push to improve ratings.
Its happening across, oyo, zomato or google reviews ohh amazon. So beware of such things
Even Glassdoor flags a few companies for manipulating reviews
Bullshit can take you very far these days
