Pros

People are very nice to work with. People under the director/VP level are very nice, friendly, easy-going, and easy to work with. Great benefit Great location Pay is close to the market range Allow hybrid work on manager level

Cons

Worst budget planning. If the leadership team cannot meet the budget ahead, new joiners will get laid off easily. (The leadership team should know to budget ahead each quarter and why still keep hiring and opening the new position???) Low annual leave days on average. Late work and night calls are needed and ad-hoc sometimes due to the global team with different time zone and management team are in the US

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.
