Working at GL Solutions

GL Solutions provides a place for extraordinarily talented friends to struggle, learn and grow together, while building something bigger than themselves. 

Culture of GL Solutions

Our core values, goals, and norms drive our culture and the collective behavior of our company. We align the work environment, expectations, compensation, benefits, and other systems to support our culture.

What kind of person succeeds at GL Solutions?

The best fits in the company’s history have moved among all kinds of positions from entry-level positions, like quality assurance, to more advanced work, like project management to team management to executive leadership—and even company ownership.  If you have the right stuff, we can teach you the rest.  

We look for these characteristics: 

  • The best seek to learn about their personal and professional potential. They push their limits.
  • Through thick and thin, you can count on the best for their perseverance, fortitude, and tenacity.
  • You can count on the best because they always do what’s right, acting with courage, loyalty and honor.

What makes a person well qualified?

Let’s say you have “the right stuff.” What about qualifications? While considered, GL Solutions places less emphasis on your work history and diplomas. GL Solutions looks for and hires people with specific abilities, no matter their background.  We can train skills.

Regardless of the role, most people in our company have these abilities:

  • Critical Thinking — You use logic and reasoning to evaluate alternative solutions, conclusions, or approaches to problems.
  • Systems Analysis — You can determine how a system should work and how changes affect outcomes.
  • Deductive Reasoning — You can apply general rules to specific problems to produce answers that make sense.
  • Information Ordering — You can arrange things or actions in a certain order or pattern according to a specific rule or set of rules.

What’s the office vibe?

GL Solutions’ growth, nearly 100% year over year in 2023, creates a fast-paced, intense environment while company values emphasize teamwork and systems. You can feel a tension between getting the work done, and following guidance on the best way to do things. Our growth drives a workload that one can feel companywide. Some people call it exciting, invigorating – promoting collaboration and teamwork. While our vision inherently requires periods of intensity, we also appreciate periods when things are relaxed, and people take R&R.

People often remark about their supportive and friendly coworkers. You can go up to anyone, and they will take time to help you find an answer or understand a problem.

Some people prefer things that are steady and easy. Just-here-punching-the-clock employees quickly leave.

Possessing “the right stuff” does not mean harsh or competitive. The company vision is about friends. The office environment is warm and relaxed – casual attire and social events. Because we are friends, we take breaks and generously support each other. We encourage people to bring their resourcefulness, minds AND hearts to work with them.

How diverse is the team?

Demographics at GL Solutions closely mirror the general population of Kalispell. The male/female ratio is approximately even. The average age of employees is 41.5 years old, slightly tipping to younger employees. Employee backgrounds vary widely from fifth-generation Montanans to those who relocated from Bend, Oregon when the company moved in 2020. Educational backgrounds and experience vary widely.

GL Solutions does not track or consider age, race, gender or religion when making employment decisions.

What advice would you give to someone just starting out?

When you first start, there can be a lot to learn. Lots of internal processes, domain knowledge and technical expertise. You only live once. Take GLS as a rare opportunity to push yourself.  People here will believe in you and give you a chance. Show determination. Go above and beyond. Ask questions. Don’t treat this like a clock punching job. Seize the day!
