Business Outlook
Pros
The product is amazing. It’s a really interesting opportunity to talk to incredible people and understand how the smartest people in any given field think. The social impact program is also really great.
Cons
Innovation is discouraged at every level. Glg hires people and doesn’t realize that their fresh eyes are an asset and instead tries to force them to think like a glg’er. There is no opportunity to solve problems that you might notice or experiment creatively. Promos and management are extremely political. Hard work isn’t necessarily rewarded if you don’t know the right people. Work life balance is also abysmal. Since this is a lot of people’s first jobs they don’t necessarily realize that these things shouldn’t be acceptable.
