- Great team and great product - Awesome networking! If you’re good at your job your clients will poach you and we had an impressive Rolodex of big names - Consultative selling experience so you’ll have recruiters reach out to you if you’re in sales because it’s seen as more difficult to master than product sales

Minpunten

There is no transparency at the company — we sit through town halls where a board of old white male execs play Journey songs and talk about “magic” and “people-centric values.” The sad reality is you’re just a work horse. I was told I was the highest performer, even given the highest quota of annual revenue to bring in for my Business Unit by the company (which doubled between 2020 and 2021 at the company’s SOLE discretion) but the other leads were white, 20 years my senior and had a lower quota (by 2 MILLION) and were being paid 50% more than me. They also managed teams smaller than me and came to me for management advice... When I broached this with management, my new manager’s response was “That’s all I can get you.” No discussion around HOW I can get to equal pay, or how I can move forward. GLG loves to talk about its progressive support for Diversity and Inclusion, they’ll host talks (which is great!) and open town halls with more white execs expressing their sadness at our minority experience but when given the actual chance to step up and be an agent of change - to lessen wage gaps, to elevate minority voices, to simply just care on a human level... management is suddenly quiet, no more journey songs, no more tunes of magic or concern — just “this is what you get.”

Amazing people - lots of reviews say that because it's true. You'll work with smart, genuine, hard working humans. Good benefits and perks. Interesting events and opportunities to learn. Overall, a good place to start your career!

Minpunten

Very fast-paced environment which definitely isn't for everyone. Lots of necessary change.

Not applicable at all (truly)

Minpunten

Genuinely I don’t know where to start. I’ve submitted and deleted two reviews in the past 3 months alone. On the surface GLG seems like the place to be to learn from members and executives, but just give it a little bit of time and you’ll quickly see how obvious the cracks are. The culture here is so toxic, managers either do not know or don’t want to delegate project work so you’ll find yourself getting whiplash just trying to get information related to your job from your OWN BOSS. At the same time everyone you interact with is the epitome of “that’s not my job”. The executive leadership team is a mean girls club made up entirely of friends of friends who have their direct reports working well into the night to pull things together so that they look good. The “motivators” the executives use is truly bullying (like constantly pulling up your job description to purposefully make you look and feel small) any other organization would identify making your employees purposely feel stupid and shut down as straight bullying. It’s truly no surprise that you will regularly see employees crying in the hallways. I have never seen a leadership team this incompetent.
