Pros

GLG attracts very smart people from variety of background but every department can boast of hiring talented and experienced individuals.

Pros

Very fast paced, learn a lot (good and bad) and never have a dull moment if you are looking to work in a start up type feel with constant directions going and changing on a regular basis.

Cons

Direction seemed to be lost on all fronts and no idea ever comes to fruition. You will feel like you are wasting your time developing at some point with the quickness of how gears are changed and things are scrapped for different/new ideas.

Pros

The company has a pretty young crowd and hence the atmosphere is lively. The work life balance is good. There is never a requirement for extra working hours.

Cons

The work is pretty brain dead. the review system is also arbitrary. there are no proper performance yardsticks to adequately rate an employee. The company provides cabs to only limited areas in delhi and gurgaon. There is not much that you learn at the organization. hence, there isn't much that you take with you when you move to the next organization. Its best to move out as quickly as you can , GLG doesn't provide any value addition and their business model is pretty niche, which restricts opportunities for people who want to move out.
