Kontras
-Little room for growth -Performance is measured by loyalty not merit -Significant number of staff are under-qualified and obsolete. Younger staff are overqualified for the work they are doing. Master and Phd level are hired for undergraduate roles. Both younger staff and consultants end up doing all the work. -Limited learning opportunities as well as rotation opportunities within the organization. -Rampant nepotism -Culture based on fear, bureaucracy and mediocrity -Management, in general, lack the skills to be managers -Suboptimal use of human resources. -Prevalent gender differenciation -Staff outsource most of their work to consultants and then take the credit for it.
