Thanks for your review. We’re glad you’ve had a good experience at GLG! We’re always working to evolve our benefits, opportunities, offices, and culture so that everyone is excited about coming to work every day. To that point, we’re deeply focused on enabling GLGers to grow their careers here, and we’re strengthening our L&D programs and helping people understand and develop their career paths in pursuit of that goal. That said, our core values – especially curiosity and learning – mean that some employees will take what they have learned and go elsewhere to pursue particular career objectives. We’re very supportive of these efforts, and proud that our alumni have gone on to exciting roles at top startups, financial services firms, and tech companies, among others. Again, thanks for your review.

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

Pros

People at the peer level are great and you learn about some interesting industries

Cons

This is the worst place I have ever worked. Management does not care about you. They put on a front, but push and push and ask for more no matter how hard you work. You can be a top performer, but if you leave on time to go home they're not happy. It's never enough and the work never ends. It's just not worth it.
