Pros

Unlimited PTO, health insurance, and FMLA/STD after one year

Cons

Discontinued the PSS role without severance package. Found a dirty corporate loophole of funneling PSS employees into a role that doubles as PSS and CS. This new CS role is a 9.5 hour day 8:30am-6pm with 3 hours of on call time from 6-9pm and a starting salary of $58k for junior, $64k for senior. No overtime. 3 days in office. Eligible for 12% bonus when meeting targets. Overall, you get 3.5 hours of your waking life a day to make $4,400/month after taxes in a senior CS role having achieved all eligible bonuses. Absolutely terrible way to live if you ask me.

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.
