Turn those critiques into an opportunity and use them proactively to refine your employer brand! Taking honest feedback from employees publicly is a golden way for you to attract talent that&#8217;s in line with the values of your organization &#8211; turning criticism into success.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do These:<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wondering how to respond to a bad performance review? Here is what you should do when you get a bad 1-star review on Glassdoor.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h4><b>The Company\u2019s Top Management Should Respond<\/b><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When the CEO or the Chief People Officer responds directly to a review, it shows that this company\u2019s leaders care about listening to their people. Even if you are the HR of the company, our experts from TrustAnalytica recommend that you ask the top management to reply to the review by an ex-employee.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h4><b>Be Specific \u2013 Dont Give a General Response<\/b><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead of sending a generic response, show you care by demonstrating in-depth knowledge of each issue. A tailored reply shows you took the time to study and comprehend what&#8217;s being said &#8211; something every person should appreciate!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This also shows other employers that you remember all your employees and that you understand that what happened with that employee was nothing but a misunderstanding.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h4><b>Show You\u2019re Grateful and Take the Conversation Offline<\/b><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Expressing a genuine \u201cThank You\u201d may seem like just good manners, but studies show that responding to negative feedback in a kind and respectful tone allows others to empathize and connect with you. After thanking them take the conversation offline and request the angry employee to either delete their negative review or turn it into a positive 5-star review.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4><strong>Never Fuel the Fire<\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you think that the reviewer has a personal grievance with your company and replying to their review can escalate the situation then you should not respond to such reviews. Never debate with anyone in the review reply section &#8211; its best to ask the reviewer to contact you directly and if this doesn&#8217;t work then leave the conversation.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h4><b>Share the Positives<\/b><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure job seekers get a taste of what it&#8217;s like to be part of your team by sharing positive Glassdoor reviews from experienced employees who work with you. Let them know why working at your company is different &#8211; tell captivating stories about how employees benefit from unique experiences that define the work culture and give you an edge over the competition.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h4><b>Show your Desire to Improve<\/b><\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A bad review can be a tough pill to swallow, but you must take the time to think before replying. Before responding, carefully examine the review and allow yourself some cool-down period overnight; this will help ensure your reply maintains an understanding yet firm tone.
