Pros
- travelling - meeting real world leaders - smart colleagues and learning opportunities - exposure to a wide array of issues - access to people while at the Forum - great brand name on your CV
Cons
- totally unprofessional management: everything revolves around huge egos of senior management, who knows who and there is no transparency around strategy, decisions or roles - senior management consists of faithful soldiers ( people who have been there forever but have no real competency to be in the role) and a few visiting "stars" who quickly leave when they see what it really is about inside the house - hire hugely overqualified people to do simple administrative tasks - unclear strategy and objectives - lacks focus - culture of fear : everybody is worried all the time because there is no clear strategy or objectives, and you can be fired overnight for most random reasons
