From my experience the people writing the most glowing positive reviews are doing it to get you to work there as they are somehow involved in hiring and do so to counter any of the genuine negative reviews. I have seen this happen first hand as a push by a recruitment team once a few honest negative reviews appeared.

There are enough people within a company with a vested interest in having a good image on glassdoor to create a strong inventive to make it look better than it is.
