GLG Client Solutions Associate reviews

Career development is difficult. There’s no management that talks about growth or improvement, Negative feedback about management has been ongoing for years, but I’ve heard nothing ever changes. The compensation scheme also differs so drastically by department and role that many people even avoid promotions altogether, preferring to stay in positions that simply maximize incentives. Endless rumors and gossip within the company, Honestly, it feels like the company won’t survive more than a few years.

~ 8:30am-6:00pm with the expectation to “look out for, and respond if necessary, until 9pm and on weekends”- the burnout comes quickly ~ work is interesting at the surface, but since the admin support has been phased out and metrics/responsibilities have forever been increased, it feels more numbingly iterative, demanding, and tedious ~ middle managers are also young (26-29 in my experience) and usually have difficulty managing or coaching a right-out-of-college employee who may need hands-on-help or support with project work, especially given the volume of tasks we often are expected to handle ~ feedback is asked for, but rarely taken seriously ~ BU initiatives are well-intentioned, but like above, are rarely taken seriously by improving systems that contribute to those goals (i.g. more focus on personal client relationships, but we each have 10+ clients emailing us back and forth all day- and have experts, leads, managers, and mounting admin tasks to attend to as well… where does the time come from?)
