Seems like this opens them up to an enormous lawsuit for lost wages,
health insurance, from up to hundreds of people.

If Glassdoor is asking for a full name and employer name during
registration (for NEW accounts), why would there be a lawsuit if it's >revealed? How could it be "without permission" if the registrant gave
them the info?

Seriously? If the webpage said, "This info is only for our own records
and will not be revealed"*, then when the webpage says that and the user >signs up, a unilateral contract is created and the owners and staff of
the webpage have to live by what they said on the webpage.
**Often it will include, "except in response to a valid subpoena".
