Glassdoor Reviews : Trustworthy?

What do you guys think about reviews on glassdoor -

I feel positive 5 star reviews- HR has deliberately asked folks to do it

Negative 1 star reviews - the employee had some grudge against someone or maybe their own performance could be poor as well.

How seriously should you consider these reviews before you join any org?
