Stimulating but highly challenging (Belgium - policy consulting office) - Mitarbeiter (anonym) bei Technopolis Group: Mitarbeiterbewertung

Interesting projects an clients. Friendly colleagues. Good work life balance.

Path for career progression is not very clear.

Good exposure to policy projects across sectors. Collaborative team. Work with EC. Meaningful work that impacts policy making.

Extremely disorganised workplace where many staff have research/academic backgrounds that translate poorly to managing projects and people effectively, while most partners remain inactive in office management and the main manager is rarely present. The absence of HR means no conflict resolution processes exist, allowing managers to avoid responsibility and look after staff well-being. Cultural insensitivity and diversity issues are routinely ignored in this quick-burnout environment characterised by constant staff turnover, with younger employees consistently overworked to compensate for poor planning. Management fundamentally lacks basic leadership and emotional skills, with promotions based primarily on liquidity capacity.
