Pluspunten

The CEO is a breath of fresh air (in addition to some other key individuals at the company). My direct manager is divine. I love my job/career and the amazing people I regularly work with every day. I'm paid well. I'm treated well, and I feel like my coworkers genuinely care about me (and I care about them). I'm one of the lucky ones. And truth be told, nearly all of GLG engineering is a great place to be. Speaking more broadly, GLG's culture is gradually changing for the better and becoming a different company. I am optimistic it will only continue to improve. That said, you may or may not enjoy working here mostly because of your direct manager and the chain of leadership filtering above that individual. To speak briefly about the company's history, GLG has always done a great job of hiring intelligent people. Unfortunately, the company also prioritized hiring book smart people over individuals who exhibited kindness, empathy, patience, etc. As a result, the culture still has highly toxic aspects to it and highly toxic people within it (even in senior leadership positions). I'd even say some toxic new hires snuck in, but I guess that could be anywhere. DEI is huge for corporations right now and GLG is no different. I think the CEO takes it seriously and makes it a top priority. Even so, there is still a lot of work for the company to do in terms of hiring, training, creating career opportunities, valuing difference, etc. In sum, I would recommend someone work at GLG (esp. on the engineering side of the house).

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!

Minpunten

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

Not applicable at all (truly)

Minpunten

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.
