Pros

Met some of the most ambitious, driven, motivated individuals at GLG.

Cons

Don't know where to begin but here it goes... This role is stressful and there's a whole lot that's not within your control. You will work hard but the numbers will not reflect the efforts you put into this job. You don't get the results you should be seeing after putting in more than 50 hours a week. They will always tell you "just focus on what you can control," but if you missed your metrics they will fire you. Your role as a membership recruiter is to bring in C-suite executives into the network just to be wasting their times on clients who's flaky and will ghost you. I get up to 10 call cancellations per month that could've count toward me delivering my duty/job but no, it doesn't. Management don't take that into considerations. This job will make you question yourself and your ability to be competent. There's no culture within the company and management doesn't put any efforts into making the employees stay at the company. How could we have any culture when the colleague you become friends with leave within 3-6 months? There's no point in making any efforts to the company's culture when you're stressing out everyday thinking if you're gonna be here the next month or not. Parking situation- It is getting too expensive to park downtown and our reimbursement only cover a small portion. I can't believe I have to pay $200/month to go to work. If you're a CDA on the 2nd floor....you know how cold the dungeon is and you also know that employee's happiness is not at all a priority for management when they don't even provide a proper sitting area in the kitchen. The table stools are as high as the table... ha ha ha

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.
