Pros

GLG hires great people and gives you a lot of responsibility quite early in your career. You are responsible for servicing your own book of clients who include senior investment professionals / corporates.

Cons

Long hours, lack of transparency from senior management, work can get mechanical. Sometimes unrealistic expectations from management.

Pros

Challenging environment that tests you. Extremely varied even if you are working in one practice area. Lots of opportunity to develop professionally. Really great people to work with and opportunity to use your language skills.

Cons

The work is intense, have to hone multi-tasking skills very quickly in order to survive. Work-life balance can be tough but this is to be expected given the types of clients we serve.
