Pros

- The people at GLG are incredibly smart, hardworking, caring, and very fun to work with. Especially now, you can see a lot of heart is put into client work and I feel that it’s getting better. - Decent salary and benefits - Time off policy is invaluable - and (from every leader I have had) managers WANT you to utilize the unlimited PTO - (Pre-covid) times the office is beautiful and there is free coffee - Good work rewards (utilizing recognition programs where you can trade in points for a number of fun items/gift cards) - A lot more flexibility when working from home. The client solutions role can be very up and down in how busy you are, and it’s nice to be at home during slow days so you can do housework, exercise, etc.

Cons

- Long and often unpredictable hours - The learning curve is steep at GLG, but once you know the job it can become a little repetitive - It can be hard to set boundaries for after-work hours - it would be nice to know that before accepting the job

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

Great co-workers, solid healthcare plans (with transgender coverage!) and excellent leave policies.

Cons

Five or six years ago GLG was an incredible place to work. It was inclusive and fun. Then Paul Todd left and everything went downhill so fast it gave me whiplash. New CHRO was a buddy of the new CEOs and the nepo hires continued from there. So many RIFs that the teams are all skeletal, and everything that made the amazing culture at GLG disappeared. I may recommend GLG for a new grad desperate for something to put on their resume, it’s probably fine for that. As far as the company I loved and genuinely enjoyed being a part of? Well that’s long dead. Management is catty and they’re all watching their own backs, everyone is working scared and willing to push anyone else under the bus.
