The read

Glean added 79 net headcount over 90 days, with sales now the fastest-growing function in a company still engineering-led (501 engineering, 381 sales). Leadership churn is visible: the company lost its Head of Customer Marketing & Growth PMM to OpenAI, its Head of Community & Customer Marketing to Gradual, and its AVP APAC; it brought in a Field Global CTO and heads of product partnerships and Japan field marketing. Five departures went to Cursor, signaling pull from AI-native tooling competitors. Internal promotions elevated the India R&D Site Lead to CTO of Glean India and formalized a GTM systems leadership role—moves that suggest operational scaling and geographic expansion even as go-to-market leadership turns over.
