      Poor Management and Favoritism practised due to Manager's Insecurity

      Associate director
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Supportive colleagues and comprehensive pro-family insurance package.

      Cons

      Poor leadership standards in select department as office politics are prevalent with credits often taken from deserving staff and given to favored individuals who prioritize visibility over actual performance. Promotions appear to be awarded to favorites, frequently leveraging the hard work of others. Decision-making authority concentrated with the manager, creating opportunities to manipulate outcomes for personal gain.

      Great Place to Work

      Associate director
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Love the multi-cultural nature of the organisation where people from all walks of life come together to create opportunities for growth, not just to prospects but within the organisation. The health benefits are simply amazing, unlike any other and it has helped the family tremendously. The work life balance is what sets INSEAD apart from other organisations.

      Cons

      We need more qualified leaders who can make decisions and take responsibilities. We need to create more opportunities for those colleagues who have the knowledge and skills, to be qualified leaders but never got the chance.

      Homogenous Working Culture

      Associate director
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Strong affiliations and bonds within the same department. The impact to the clients is the main reason for most employees' sense of belonging.

      Cons

      Dissonance across non-related departments or other departments. Weak IT systems laced with bureaucracy. Very weak monetary incentives.
