Pros

GLG is by far the best company I've ever had the privilege to work for. Will Ballard, GLG's CTO, has created an environment of learning and sharing which certainly demonstrates the companies core values. In the time I've worked for GLG, I've learned more in my career than I have at an previous job. Personal development is encouraged and you'll get to the opportunity to work with incredibly intelligent colleagues. There isn't enough space provided for me to accurately communicate how great pair programming with the other members of my team is. Everyday I learn something new and have the opportunity to teach others, so each day I am rewarded. Every company needs to take notes on how GLG works, especially in the engineering department.

Cons

Each time I try to find something negative, I'm reminded by all the positives. Maybe 401K matching could be better given how much success the company has had in recent years. Perhaps a clearer pathway to how to achieve promotions would help retain long time employees. Overall pros far outweigh the cons.

Pros

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!

Cons

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

Pros

People at the peer level are great and you learn about some interesting industries

Cons

This is the worst place I have ever worked. Management does not care about you. They put on a front, but push and push and ask for more no matter how hard you work. You can be a top performer, but if you leave on time to go home they're not happy. It's never enough and the work never ends. It's just not worth it.
