GLG Client Solutions Associate reviews

Aside from a few pros, everything else is negative. There is no capable local management to provide leadership, establish clear strategies, or set a good example. Issues with management have been raised for years, leading to many resignations, yet nothing has improved. Management often shows a lack of motivation and professionalism, which has seriously damaged commercial performance. Overall, there is no will to grow, and the office environment is miserable. Clients have already turned to competitors, and the company is being thoroughly outperformed. Turnover is extremely high, and the culture shows no interest in individual career growth or development. Employees are becoming increasingly unmotivated and careless, and the overall atmosphere is a disaster. There is no sign of business improvement, and it seems certain this office will remain in decline for at least the next few years. In the worst case, this office may even be shut down.

~ 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?)
