There is no transparency at the company — we sit through town halls where a board of old white male execs play Journey songs and talk about “magic” and “people-centric values.” The sad reality is you’re just a work horse. I was told I was the highest performer, even given the highest quota of annual revenue to bring in for my Business Unit by the company (which doubled between 2020 and 2021 at the company’s SOLE discretion) but the other leads were white, 20 years my senior and had a lower quota (by 2 MILLION) and were being paid 50% more than me. They also managed teams smaller than me and came to me for management advice...
When I broached this with management, my new manager’s response was “That’s all I can get you.” No discussion around HOW I can get to equal pay, or how I can move forward.
GLG loves to talk about its progressive support for Diversity and Inclusion, they’ll host talks (which is great!) and open town halls with more white execs expressing their sadness at our minority experience but when given the actual chance to step up and be an agent of change - to lessen wage gaps, to elevate minority voices, to simply just care on a human level... management is suddenly quiet, no more journey songs, no more tunes of magic or concern — just “this is what you get.”
