Pros
One big pro at GLG is they have Unlimited time-off. However the more time off you take (depending on your job role) the more this well impact your metrics/numbers therefore directly impacting your Bonus.
Cons
Long hours contributing to an overall poor work/life balance as well mixed messaging from upper management, and poor communication about expectations.
GLG is a great place to start your career and quickly advance. You'll learn a lot from smart colleagues and the clients/experts you interact with. Leadership genuinely cares about employees and invests heavily in DE&I, development opportunities, career path, benefits, and more. Plus there's a strong Social Impact program to add meaning to the work.
Cons
Most jobs are client-facing so you'll learn a lot and develop important skills, but you will also work hard.
- Good pay + quarterly bonuses - Fast track to promotion if you hit your metrics - Very thorough training to help you succeed - VERY flexible PTO & great benefits - Flexible hybrid work (only go in 2 days a week and the days we do go in, we go in around 10AM to avoid traffic, so nice!) - Great leadership - lots of young professionals - Fun work culture in my experience - team outings, work happy hours, etc. - Lots of great skills to learn especially in the client facing senior role
Cons
- Time-sensitive work so you must be able to work in fast paced environments - Can work longer hours if you don’t get your work done - I personally never work passed 5:30. Some people work until 7:00 because they don’t get their work done in time - Must be good at time management! If you’re not, you will have to work late hours. Just finish your work during the day and you’re good to go!
