It’s a tiny bit more effective, it’s the difference between them just trashing/ignoring it and going off of what they previously knew (if it’s still around), or keeping inaccurate info temporarily. Whether it’s actually worth the time it takes to craft up realistic changes is a different story though.
Edit all of your info to be completely bogus, so make sure before deactivating to edit your account to accurately represent your position as the CEO of the Pacific Ocean, and your legal name change to Fried Onion.
Or if you wanna make it have an adverse an effect on them, put in some time to make it look realistic enough but still fake so that they keep the data instead of trashing (possibly reverting, if they have a backup?) it if it ever comes up.
Nice reminder to delete that account too!
Although it is now called “deactivate”
Rememeber to poison the data too!
not a user of glassdoor but how do you poison data?
Before you delete your comments and reviews change them to something very basic and neutral?
Companies like to keep posts/comments/other data, but they rarely keep the history of changes you’ve made to that data.
So before deleting the account, replace all the data in it with garbage. Then it wont matter if they keep it.
name: bigdick
Last: daddy
unemployed
etc
never provide honest data to these 3p data aggregator clowns
Shouldn’t you change your account info to something fictitious, though?
I am not sure if it matters as long as it is NOT true.
But I can see how making it some what believable might be more effective. Does anyone know?
The joke was that your name is actually Bigdick Daddy.
Chad joke but it deff went way over my head :(

Which is funny, because after doing so they give you a popup messaging explicitly stating that your account is deleted.
Can’t trust them at all.
