Did you have a stroke?
Look through the reviews and essentially chuck out the low-effort ones, the glowing ones with “no cons”, and the long tirades over specific issues. You’ll then have a facsimile of truth.
I used to work for a company that was ranked as 2.7 on glassdoor. I really liked everyone i worked with, but there were limitations, so I left. That company is now ranked a 3.2 on glassdoor, and everyone i know who is still there is desperately trying to post out.
Despite massive improvement in their score, they still aren't anywhere near a 4. They can clearly claim, though, that they are a better place to work than they used to be, even if it still sucks.
It is quite common for companies to ask current employees to post positive reviews. So take it with a grain of salt. Where I used to work we got quarterly reports and suggestions of the score went down.
As someone above said. Take the outlier out and you will have a better picture of reality.

I worked somewhere that asked new hires to post a review right around the 90-day mark. 😂
