Job seekers, employees and employers will now see company ratings, CEO ratings and workplace factor ratings by race/ethnicity, gender identity, parental or caregiver status, disability, sexual orientation and veteran status. Salaries will also be broken down by gender identity and race/ethnicity, according to Glassdoor.

Once on the site, users will be able to see how Black employees at a company rate their company's culture or career opportunities compared to their counterparts. Likewise, they can also see how LGBTQ+ employees view the leadership at a particular company or what their average salary may be for people who identify as female, male or non-binary, according to Glassdoor.

Aside from its new feature, the company simultaneously published a separate report comparing Black employees' workplace satisfaction with their colleagues.

Overall, the report revealed that company ratings by Black employees were below the average rating of 3.5. Black employees rated companies at 3.3 overall, indicating that Black employees are less satisfied at work when compared to all employees.

However, "job satisfaction among Black employees varies widely by company," the company said.
