INSEAD Assistant Director of Marketing in Fontainebleau (France): (Current Employee)

“INSEAD is a phenomenal place to work.”

Pros

Great staff, professors -very supportive and super friendly. Work life balance is amazing. Not to mention 38 hour working week in France, which is mandatory. If you work overtime you must take time off to 'recuperate' those days. You have 5-6 weeks vacation time even when you just come on board. Autonomy is great - very entrepreneurial environment. Fontainebleau is a beautiful small french village not too far from Paris and Singapore is also fantastic. Both campuses/offices are very nice and modern with top notch facilities. You also have on-site cafeteria, gym, book store, newspapers, office supplies all on campus.

Cons

If you are a city person, you are working in a small village in the forest. Beautiful but it would be nice if it was a little closer to paris (it's about 65 km but traffic is a nightmare and the school is not walking distance from the train station). No major pay increases or promotions given regularly. Most people stay in the same roles for a number of years. However people do switch over to different deparments quite frequently.
