GlobalData reviews

Limited transparency from upper management - the CEO dictates each salary raise without even knowing the employees. All about numbers, no regard to the hard work done by individual employees. You have to push extremely hard to get anything or to have your voice heard. Everyone ends up leaving for better competitors as the pay is better and you’re more respected. Impossible to collaborate internally. Priorities will always be on sales people. There is a common understanding that all GlobalData does is acquire companies, and squeeze them as much as possible until all the employees leave.

Significantly below-industry pay. Sparsely attained and badly placed incentive scheme (no renewal-driven incentives, purely sales-driven). Poor general management without any scope for actual change (mainly due to lack of sway of mid-level managers). Sales-heavy power-driven upper management. Retention Levels abismal (talent flies through and out the other side rapidly). Witnessed some pitiful examples of employee negligence (i.e. Contract-exploitation, lack of transparency, dead-end initiatives).
