Disorganised - Account Handler CITYNET Employee Review

Growing company that provides challenges.

Growing pains. Need to formalize certain policies, processes, etc..

CityNet has tons of potential to be a strong network in the Asia Pacific Region and to do good work in terms of Urban Development. As a Program Officer, there are many opportunities to give ideas, travel internationally and develop project management skills.

CityNet has major management problems, no direction, no strategy, no opportunities for growth. Requirements of staff range from small administrative tasks for the Director to enormous Strategic planning. There is poor and unethical use of budget, and pay is very low for Officers. Division of work among officers is extremely confusing and unclear. Some hiring decisions are made based on personal connections in spite of very low quality work and expertise. Very few employees have knowledge and expertise in urban development. Relationship between the CityNet Secretariat and Seoul Government (the host city) is very strange and unclear. HR policies change regularly.
