OK first job, but expect a toxic corporate culture full of lost souls - Anonymous employee GLG Employee Review

- You don't learn any hard skills on the client solutions team (or any other teams for that matter, unless you're a part of strategy or engineering) - Terrible middle management system. Your direct manager can be as young as 23 and often no older than 28. Clear lack of diverse and interesting perspectives to learn from - Open format office. Some people may find that to be a Pro, but to me it's very distracting and frustrating to hear endless chatter throughout the workday - No real incentives until you reach Team Lead role (I.e. no quarterly bonuses/incentives for client solutions managers or associates even though they are the ones driving the output and managing client relationships) - Emphasis on "continuous improvement" means that new technology is rolled out with several bugs that can take several days or weeks to address - Senior leadership regularly side steps questions on employee turnover during company-wide Town Halls. Their attempts at improving company culture are abysmal Overall: GLG is not necessarily a bad company to work for if the above Cons don't align with your preferences. The phrase "you learn a mile wide and an inch deep" is true there. So if you're a lost soul and don't know which industry you want to be in, then GLG might be right for you as a FIRST job. I'd never recommend this to anyone who is already in the workforce.
