Pros

- I thoroughly enjoyed the junior people at GLG - Young, motivated, eager to learn, thirst for leadership and development - NYC office is very nice

Cons

- No direction - Management is delusional - CEO is a politician - Work is VERY repetitive, GLG is a giant phone-based match making service for clients and so-called experts - One’s ability to truly interact and advise clients is ZERO, yet the company pitches that big time in recruiting. Disingenuous at best, out right lie worse case

Pros

Amazing people - lots of reviews say that because it's true. You'll work with smart, genuine, hard working humans. Good benefits and perks. Interesting events and opportunities to learn. Overall, a good place to start your career!

Cons

Very fast-paced environment which definitely isn't for everyone. Lots of necessary change.

Pros

People at the peer level are great and you learn about some interesting industries

Cons

This is the worst place I have ever worked. Management does not care about you. They put on a front, but push and push and ask for more no matter how hard you work. You can be a top performer, but if you leave on time to go home they're not happy. It's never enough and the work never ends. It's just not worth it.
