Growth in Numbers, Not in Quality: Political Favoritism and Limited Opportunities Hinder Development - werkgeversreview Associate bij Capital Fund Management

The company's current environment is marked by several barriers that hinder growth and opportunity for mid-senior and young professionals. Managers lack leadership and people management skills. Career advancement is driven by personal connections and likeability. Managers often take credit for team achievements without assuming responsibility. Those who challenge the status quo or express dissenting views are subtly or directly forced to leave, reinforcing a culture of conformity and silence. Growth focuses on increasing headcount rather than improving talent quality; potential is consistently overlooked. These issues are widely acknowledged internally but remain unaddressed.
