Vantaggi

Overall GLG is a pretty nice place to work. I think a lot of the bad reviews have to do with certain bad managers and while you can blame the company for that, I would take those reviews with a grain of salt. As a whole, here are the pros: Great people. Flexible work environment if you are paired with the right manager. (Not everyone has this luxury.) Beautiful office space. Good benefits. Fast opportunity for growth if you prove yourself, whether it be promotions or opportunity to move to a different department or city.

Svantaggi

Diversity! GLG is a company ran by priveleged white males who for a long time did not realize the need for diversity in the company’s management or even their associates. It is alarming and makes you wonder, how skewed is your view of the world if you live and work in New York City but do not hire diversely? How many lacrosse players from an ivy school can you hire? Think about it. The great solution to this issue is that management has hired a very smart and seasoned head of HR who has great experience and happens to be a woman. I hope she can fix this and I think she will, so there is some glimpse of this changing over time. Departments are not collaborative and feel like different mini companies within a large conglomerate. It would be great to know what people are working on and understand the different groups within GLG a little better.

Thanks for your review (and for your compliment). Like you, I’m optimistic about GLG’s future. Eight months in, I’m so inspired by the great people I’ve met. I’m also excited about many of the issues you’ve raised – increasing collaboration, evolving our hiring practices, and creating a more diverse workplace. Galaxy – our company intranet – is just the start, and there’s much more to come.

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.

Vantaggi

Good colleagues, arguably a good job post college (for like a year MAX)

Svantaggi

I cannot stress enough how terrible this company is. Spent 5 years there, and watched it go further downhill every year. You leave with only soft skills (if that), and 0 actual industry knowledge. Seriously, you leave only knowing a bunch of Hocus Pocus. I am really surprised this company hasn't been bought yet. Or merged. On my team alone, we lost 7 out of our 9 managers since January... either due to layoffs or them quitting. Pay is low. There are no bonuses and it's very difficult to get a raise. 90k in NYC is poverty. There are bright people that come in with Masters, and PhDs, and MBAs -- handing them 90k is insulting.
