Pros

Offcially nothing positive to say about GLG.

Cons

The work environment is toxic and demoralizing. Executive Leadership focuses solely on numbers, not people—you’re made to feel completely replaceable. Perks and benefits are being quietly stripped away—ClassPass, for example, completely unusable at some locations of London. The recent mandate requiring four days in the office has further impacted morale, with little incentive for employees to exceed expectations. Many simply go through the motions—watching the clock, maximizing breaks, and disengaging whenever possible. There's a glaring absence of core values, genuine support, or appreciation for the people doing the work.

Pros

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!

Cons

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

Pros

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

Cons

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.
