GLG reviews

The work I did felt pointless. On many days, felt like a waste of time and my talents. Just an administrative bot- something AI can replace in near-future. You need a college degree to work as an Associate- but this is work I could’ve done with a high school diploma. Also, the management at GLG make the company seem like a bigger deal than it actually is (which is probably common for a lot of companies tbh because they need to increase morale or whatever)- but in reality, there are several other companies that do the same thing and pay their employees more. Also, constant change. Some of it, unnecessary. When I joined, there was a change in leadership and some structure. When I left, there was major change in how the promotion path worked for new employees (they made it far more confusing- went from Associates to Senior Associate to Research Manager to just Associate, with no distinction on seniority or compensation).

Very unserious job with a boys club for leadership. They don’t reward top performers, they reward their best friends. After leaving GLG you’ll finally realize the negative opinion that the industry has of GLG.
