      What are perks and other benefits like at EBRD?

      EBRD reviews

      Less-than-ideal work environment with various drawbacks

      Associate
      Former employee
      London, England
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      nice facilities and subsidised canteen

      Cons

      The workplace is bureaucratic and rife with toxic internal politics. Career opportunities are rarefied and the lack of internal mobility foster an atmosphere where middle managers, more focused on preserving their internal position, exhibit territorial behaviour that can hinder a collaborative and growth-oriented work environment. Lack of leadership from the senior management allows these issues to persist, despite being internally common currency. Even if the tax-free salary and benefits seem alluring, the remuneration falls below industry standards, and full pension benefits require years to vest. It is regrettable that despite the potential for a unique blend of civil service and finance, the current state of affairs detracts from what could otherwise be a dream job at EBRD for many.

      Good place to learn and to acquire some experience. Get to travel to some of the countries of operation when working on projects. Decent work-life balance / benefits

      Cons

      Bureaucratic institution in general, which comes from being funded by various governments. In some teams it takes forever to get promoted and some people, including team directors, do not respect their peers. Some people who work there can show prejudice towards others.
