Pros

Culture is good - true flexi timings. Get to work with very brainy and awesome techies. Good projects - a lot to learn. Good for junior folks!

Cons

The growth opportunities cease once you attain the level of a Manager. Future is uncertain and the leadership team's rants do no seem to be believable based on past experiences. In terms of work and technical competencies the company likes to compare its employees with Googles and Microsofts of the world. However, at the time of giving salary increments, the salaries are compared with the Infosys's ans TCS's of the world. If in some cycle, Infy hasn't performed well and does not give increments to its employees, GL gives the example of Infy and gives peanuts as increment to its employees even though it has done wonderful in that cycle in terms of profit margins. At the same time, the CEO and the sales people get hefty cheques as bonuses in that cycle about which they happily tell the people in townhalls! Double standards!! Senior management does not keep its promises and seems to be very confused. They do not listen to the middle management who are more connected to the people on the floor and know their problems well. Overall, a very autocratic senior management who just knows how to save their neck and put all the responsibility, pressure and blame on their subordinates. This is reflected in all their official dealings with subordinates. Not so good for the middle management!

Pros

Offered remote work. Other than that, nothing.

Cons

Incredibly disorganized from onboarding to the recent mass layoffs of both contractors and full-time employees. The culture within the project I worked on was prone to toxic corporate politics, and the guidelines for the work performed were often vague and shifting. I can only assume this is indicative of the larger environment Gobal Logic cultivates, but it's hard to tell as their website includes nothing but word salad around what they actually do or the services they provide. Leadership constantly changed the goalpost meaning no one could truly learn or succeed. The airplane was being built as it was being flown, essentially. New tools were consistently introduced and then changed when it was found they were ineffective and the client was not being given the results they demanded. It almost felt at times as if the project was being internally sabotaged, though I'm not sure what the benefit of that would be. While not a scam, there is no hope of upward mobility, and you can be let go at a moment's notice. The instability and culture of fear they create is absolutely intentional, and you'd be better off working elsewhere for the sake of your mental health. I don't foresee this company having any tangible longevity given how poorly it's run.
