Pros

If in the right area you can progress quite quickly

Cons

Extremely poor management and a huge lack of transparency. Organisational changes and other important updates are not shared to employees. This creates tension and a lack of trust. Overall the atmosphere is very poor.

Pros

The best part about GLG is the environment, and the caliber of people you'll work with. I worked primarily for the marketing team, which has grown quickly and has completely re-invigorated the company's digital properties. Lots of great talent and experience on this team. The NY office itself is full of fantastic, interesting characters. Sit at the espresso bar for a bit and you can speak with people from every area of the business, whether it's in regard to GLG or shared outside interests. There are many young, hungry, resourceful people that make day-to-day life quite pleasant. I made plenty of friends in a year and a half at the business.

Cons

Role progression isn't the most clear-cut when you're transitioning from one role to the next. This could be improved upon.

Pros

Great working atmosphere, full of ambitious and driven people. Role development is quick at the beginning and junior people get management responsibility early in their career.

Cons

Management is slow at taking decisions. Would be good to see them be more proactive rather than reactive.
