i came across this logo today. those single quotes seem so wrong. wtf is going on here? i know there are type nerds on here. is there something i'm missing or did they really fuck these up so badly?

@palomakop they're just... completely wrong; the left one should be bottom weighted and curling inward (so it's flipped in both directions) and the right is upside down

they should form a yin and yang-style circle that "encloses" the quote itself

edit: wait that's Glassdoor's actual new logo?!

@lichendust @palomakop It's deliberate, but you can't really tell why unless you look at the logo without the brand name — like, say, in their favicon. The single quotes are rotated so that the first one is a g (for glass) and the second one is a d (for don't get too clever with your typography).

@lichendust @palomakop As an explication for one of the worst logo-change choices I've ever seen: https://logos-world.net/glassdoor-logo/ - it's deliberate, and sill awful.
