Well, I can verify my email and make an account, but the UI after that is completely and utterly broken. I can't change my profile name from the default generated one, it keeps changing my title to something I didn't select, the profile photo won't save, I'm asked to verify my birthday every time I log in, navigation isn't remotely intuitive when it does work, and the app somehow keeps getting stuck on the posts at the top of my feed... this app is unfortunately useless to me.

If Facebook is not evasive enough for you, then you should try Fishbowl! You will receive email notifications, because there is no way to turn them off. And, despite turning off all push notifications, you will still get the occasional one, reminding you of all the "fun" you are missing. Even before you sign up, you will get multiple emails, asking you to sign up. And, if you do end up signing up and want to quit, well, get ready to jump through many hoops! And thus, the name "Fishbowl" comes in, as you will never escape.

I want so badly for this app to be good. The website isn't very good and neither is the app-within-an-app inside of Glassdoor. NOPE. The app really, really wants to send you notifications. Every time you comment, there is a pop-up about notifications with vague text. There is nearly no customizing the kinds of notifications you get either. It's very buggy. Constant crashes, freezes, "you don't have permission" when clicking a notification. Reporting functionality is nearly zero.
