Pros

Nice people and free coffee.

Cons

This was once a proud firm with a strong culture. Now, the culture is one of fighting for seats on the lifeboats of the Titanic. Remember the order: partners and their friends first!

Baillie Gifford Response

Thank you for sharing this, particularly given how long you’ve been with the firm. I’m sorry to read how you are feeling. I joined recently as Chief People Officer and have been spending time listening to colleagues about how the culture is experienced today and seeking input on what we might need to evolve, whilst remaining distinctive and client focused. If you are still with Baillie Gifford and would be open to it, I would genuinely welcome the chance to hear more directly. Best wishes, Kirsty
