Pros

Great healthcare plan you can take advantage of for the therapy you will need from working at GLG. Remote work is a plus but not really something unique these days. 401k match, great health benefits, free food 1x a week, etc. All these benefits can also be found at other companies who will actually pay a competitive salary :)

Cons

Where do I begin? GLG preys on young, impressionable new college grads and promises them a bright future at a successful, exciting company with fun projects and a great work environment. The truth is that the project work is boring, monotonous and you will end up burnt out and under-appreciated. Managers and upper management provide unrealistic targets, play favorites and listen to feedback, but no action is ever taken in response. Turnover is high here, with nearly everyone in my starting onboarding group leaving within the first 6 months for other jobs or quitting with no job lined up. Time after time, GLG upper management listened to anonymous questions and concerns about burnout and months later nothing was different. Employees are constantly burnout from unrealistic metrics, heavy workload and micromanagement. Also, company culture? There is no culture. If you are a young new grad considering starting your career at GLG, please reconsider.

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

Not applicable at all (truly)

Cons

Genuinely I don’t know where to start. I’ve submitted and deleted two reviews in the past 3 months alone. On the surface GLG seems like the place to be to learn from members and executives, but just give it a little bit of time and you’ll quickly see how obvious the cracks are. The culture here is so toxic, managers either do not know or don’t want to delegate project work so you’ll find yourself getting whiplash just trying to get information related to your job from your OWN BOSS. At the same time everyone you interact with is the epitome of “that’s not my job”. The executive leadership team is a mean girls club made up entirely of friends of friends who have their direct reports working well into the night to pull things together so that they look good. The “motivators” the executives use is truly bullying (like constantly pulling up your job description to purposefully make you look and feel small) any other organization would identify making your employees purposely feel stupid and shut down as straight bullying. It’s truly no surprise that you will regularly see employees crying in the hallways. I have never seen a leadership team this incompetent.
