Pros
Pretty office that keeps getting bigger. Barista bar for half of the day. Free lunch sometimes. Free snacks sometimes.
Cons
In my opinion, GLG has a really bad culture, and it gets worse with each class of new hires. GLG loves to advertise that they hire "the smartest talent from top tier universities". The problem with that is it completely kills any chance of diversity in every sense of the word. Every year, a new group of 70+ fresh grads start at GLG and most of them come from the same 2 or 3 schools. They all already know each other. With such saturation, there is hardly a chance to experience something/someone new because you already know everyone. Different backgrounds? Maybe in regards to majors, but majors won't apply to anything you do at GLG. The other negative reviews cover every other issue I had while working there, but other things I wish I knew beforehand: - you will be working 10+ hours every day - when you take time off, your coworkers will still want you to be on-call - everyone around you will glorify being busy, boast about how obsessive they are with clients, and force themselves to work from home while they're sick as dogs - no matter what, the clients run the world - whenever you talk to someone face-to-face, they will stop paying attention to you if they get an email or even think they are getting an email People just forgot how to treat others with decency and respect.
