Pros

Salary is decent. Especially if you’re fresh out of college. It was 58k.

Cons

I didn’t realize until I left but this is essentially a BDR or SDR role except when you move up to the next tier you don’t really get commission like an account executive would. I believe there were bonuses for hitting certain metrics, but I feel that they try and present the job as if it’s something that it’s not. If I would have known I was essentially an SDR it would have made more sense as to why I was doing a majority of cold calling and prospecting. I thought of the position as something else and felt that my skills weren’t being used properly. There’s also NO work life balance. The expectation is that you stay on the clock late and work weekends periodically (if you’re on the healthcare team. As oftentimes healthcare is open 24/7). They also have “unlimited PTO” but make you feel guilty about taking it, especially if you haven’t hit your desired numbers. My training for the next step up was TERRIBLE. They have you train and shadow with several different people and everyone says “they may want you to do it like this but I do it like THIS”. Then when I got to my assessment I did everything how people taught me and failed lol smh. Never in my life have I quit a job without having another one lined up but after only 3 months of being here I was OUT! I had so much anxiety just even THINKING about logging in to work!

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

Not applicable at all (truly)

Cons

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.
