      Vantaggi

      Enormous turnover means they teach you all there really is to get out of the role in the first 6 months. Nobody really stays for more than 2-3 years. They'll pay you super well if you're willing to stick around for >4 years, but at the opportunity cost of all of your actual professional and career development during that time.

      Svantaggi

      The pay is barely enough to live on in most of the geographies, other than Texas, where it's plenty. They pretend like they put a lot of resources into learning and development for employees but it's all talk and no follow up. The benefits are average at best. Middle management is mediocre (just the people who weren't good enough to find a better job after 2-3 years) most of the time and upper management pretends to be accessible, but unless you're in NYC they aren't and only pretend to be transparent. They management pretends to be meritocratic in its focus on defined goals, but the goals are often unreasonable. Your experience will largely be a function of your team and your accounts rather than your own performance or capabilities. Even when they acknowledge that some accounts are more or less difficult to service than others they're unyielding on the promotion requirements and performance bonuses which horribly hypocritical. I started out of the NYC HQ and, on day one, was issued a crappy, used Lenovo with no rubber feet left and a broken keyboard. That's how little respect they show to new junior employees. The rest of the experience has been basically more of the same in every other department.

      We see our expansion and growth as positives, not negatives. We want people to feel good about working at a company that is doing well and that’s committing to figuring out how to do even better. Growing pains do happen when you grow at a double-digit pace over multiple years. We’re taking concrete steps to address them. For example, this summer we hired a new global head of HR, and throughout the year we’ve ramped up our L&D opportunities for employees, with a focus on developing our managers. We’ve also begun experimenting with both technological and team solutions to workload balancing, with more to come on both fronts.

      Vantaggi

      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!

      Svantaggi

      Very fast-paced environment which definitely isn't for everyone. Lots of necessary change.

      Not applicable at all (truly)

      Svantaggi

      Genuinely I don’t know where to start. I’ve submitted and deleted two reviews in the past 3 months alone. On the surface GLG seems like the place to be to learn from members and executives, but just give it a little bit of time and you’ll quickly see how obvious the cracks are. The culture here is so toxic, managers either do not know or don’t want to delegate project work so you’ll find yourself getting whiplash just trying to get information related to your job from your OWN BOSS. At the same time everyone you interact with is the epitome of “that’s not my job”. The executive leadership team is a mean girls club made up entirely of friends of friends who have their direct reports working well into the night to pull things together so that they look good. The “motivators” the executives use is truly bullying (like constantly pulling up your job description to purposefully make you look and feel small) any other organization would identify making your employees purposely feel stupid and shut down as straight bullying. It’s truly no surprise that you will regularly see employees crying in the hallways. I have never seen a leadership team this incompetent.
